Musnad Ahmad 8427 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنَّ رَجُلًا كَانَ يَبِيعُ الْخَمْرَ فِي سَفِينَةٍ ، وَكَانَ يَشُوبُهُ بِالْمَاءِ ، وَكَانَ مَعَهُ فِي السَّفِينَةِ قِرْدٌ ، قَالَ : فَأَخَذَ الْكِيسَ وَفِيهِ الدَّنَانِيرُ ، قَالَ : فَصَعِدَ الذَّرْوَ يَعْنِي الدَّقَلَ فَفَتَحَ الْكِيسَ ، فَجَعَلَ يُلْقِي فِي الْبَحْرِ دِينَارًا وَفِي السَّفِينَةِ دِينَارًا ، حَتَّى لَمْ يَبْقَ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: A man boarded a boat with wine for trade. There was also a monkey with him. The monkey grabbed his purse of money and climbed up a tree. The monkey started throwing one dinar into the sea and another into his master's boat, until he had divided them equally. (From here the famous saying originated: "The milk became milk and the water became water," meaning everything was separated and clarified.)
