أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ مَمْلَكٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ الدَّرْدَاءِ، تَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((مَنْ أُعْطِي حَظَّهُ مِنَ الرِّفْقِ أُعْطِي حَظَّهُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ، وَمَنْ حُرِمَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ الرِّفْقِ حُرِمَ حَظَّهُ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ)).
Sayyidah Umm Darda’ (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a marfu’ manner: He (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Whoever has been given his portion of gentleness has been given his portion of goodness, and whoever is deprived of gentleness has been deprived of his portion of goodness to that extent.”
