Hadith 17231

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، الرَّجُلُ أَمُرُّ بِهِ ، فَلَا يُضَيِّفُنِي ، وَلَا يَقْرِينِي ، فَيَمُرُّ بِي فَأَجْزِيهِ ؟ قَالَ : " لَا ، بَلْ اقْرِهِ " ، قَالَ : فَرَآنِي رَثَّ الثِيَابَ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ مَالٍ ؟ " فَقُلْتُ : قَدْ أَعْطَانِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ كُلِّ الْمَالِ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ ، وَالْغَنَمِ ، قَالَ : " فَلْيُرَ أَثَرُ نِعْمَةِ اللَّهِ عَلَيْكَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that I submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! (peace and blessings be upon him), please tell me, if I go as a guest to someone's place and he neither honors me nor shows hospitality, then if that same person comes to my place as a guest, should I treat him the same way he treated me, or should I show him hospitality?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "You should show him hospitality." On one occasion, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked, "What kind of wealth do you have?" I replied, "Allah has granted me all kinds of wealth, such as goats and camels, etc." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Then the effects of Allah's blessings and honor should be visible on you."
