(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
كَثِيرُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا
جَعْفَرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا
عِمْرَانُ الْبَصْرِيُّ الْقَصِيرُ ، عَنْ
أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : " خَدَمْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَشْرَ سِنِينَ ، فَمَا أَمَرَنِي بِأَمْرٍ فَتَوَانَيْتُ عَنْهُ ، أَوْ ضَيَّعْتُهُ ، فَلَامَنِي ، فَإِنْ لَامَنِي أَحَدٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ إِلَّا قَالَ : دَعُوهُ ، فَلَوْ قُدِّرَ أَوْ قَالَ : لَوْ قُضِيَ أَنْ يَكُونَ كَانَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that I served the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) for ten years. During this time, if the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed me to do something and I was delayed in it or could not do it, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never reproached me. If any member of the household reproached me, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would say, "Leave him; if it had been decreed in destiny, it would surely have happened."
