حَدَّثَنَا
رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا
بِسْطَامُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ
خَلِيفَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْغُبَرِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ
عَائِذَ بْنَ عَمْرٍو الْمُزَنِيَّ ، قَالَ : بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ نَبِيِّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، إِذَا أَعْرَابِيٌّ قَدْ أَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ يَقُولُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَطْعِمْنِي ، يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَعْطِنِي ، قَالَ : فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَدَخَلَ الْمَنْزِلَ وَأَخَذَ بِعِضَادَتَيْ الْحُجْرَةِ ، وَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا بِوَجْهِهِ ، وَقَالَ : " وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ ،
لَوْ تَعْلَمُونَ مَا أَعْلَمُ فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ ، مَا سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ رَجُلًا وَهُوَ يَجِدُ لَيْلَةً تُبِيتُهُ " فَأَمَرَ لَهُ بِطَعَامٍ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Aiz (may Allah be pleased with him) that once we were sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a Bedouin came and began to beg earnestly. He was saying, "O Messenger of Allah, feed me something; O Messenger of Allah, give me something." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and went into his house, held both doors of his chamber, turned towards us, and said, "By Him in whose hand is the life of Muhammad, if you knew what I know about asking, then no person who had enough provisions to spend a night would ask anything from another." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered food to be given to him.
