Hadith 11940

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ عَبَّادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُجَالِدٌ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْوَدَّاكِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : وَاللَّهِ مَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْنَا أَمِيرٌ إِلَّا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ مِنَ الْمَاضِي ، وَلَا عَامٌ إِلَّا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ مِنَ الْمَاضِي ، قَالَ : لَوْلَا شَيْءٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقُلْتُ مِثْلَ مَا يَقُولُ ، وَلَكِنْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ مِنْ أُمَرَائِكُمْ أَمِيرًا يَحْثِي الْمَالَ حَثْيًا ، وَلَا يَعُدُّهُ عَدًّا ، يَأْتِيهِ الرَّجُلُ يَسْأَلُهُ ، فَيَقُولُ : خُذْ ، فَيَبْسُطُ الرَّجُلُ ثَوْبَهُ ، فَيَحْثِي فِيهِ " ، وَبَسَطَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِلْحَفَةً غَلِيظَةً كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ ، يَحْكِي صَنِيعَ الرَّجُلِ ، ثُمَّ جَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ أَكْنَافَهَا ، قَالَ : " فَيَأْخُذُهُ ثُمَّ يَنْطَلِقُ " .
Abu Al-Wadaq says that I said to Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him), "By Allah! Every ruler who comes to us is worse than the previous one, and every coming year is worse than the last." He replied, "If I had not heard a hadith from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I would have said the same, but I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'There will be a caliph among your rulers who will give wealth and riches abundantly without counting the people.' A man will come to him and ask, and he will say to him, 'Take it.' He will spread out a cloth, and the caliph will fill it with wealth with both hands. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) demonstrated this by taking off his thick cloak and practically showing how it would be done, then he gathered it together and said, 'That man will take it and go away.'"
