أخبرنا أبو عبد الله محمد بن عبد الله بن دينار العدلُ، حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن نَصْر، حدثنا أبو نُعَيم، حدثنا هشام بن سعد، عن زيد بن أسلمَ، عن أبيه، قال: سمعتُ عمر بن الخطاب يقول: أمَرَنا رسولُ الله ﷺ يومًا أن نتصدَّقَ، فوافَقَ ذلك مالًا عندي، فقلتُ: اليومَ أسبِقُ أبا بكرٍ إن سَبَقتُه يومًا، فجئتُ بنصف مالي، فقال رسولُ الله ﷺ: "ما أبقيتَ لأهلِكَ؟ " قلت: مِثلَه. قال: وأتى أبو بكرٍ بكُلِّ ما عندَه، فقال رسولُ الله ﷺ: "ما أبقيتَ لأهلِكَ؟ " قال: أبقيتُ لهم اللهَ ورسولَه، فقلت: لا أُسابِقُك إلى شيءٍ أبدًا (1).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: One day the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered us to give charity, and at that time I happened to have some wealth. I said (to myself): If I am ever to outdo Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him), today I will get ahead of him. So I came with half of my wealth, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What have you left for your family?" I said: "The same amount (that is, half of my wealth)." And Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) came with all his wealth, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Abu Bakr! What have you left for your family?" He said: "I have left Allah and His Messenger for them." Then I said (to myself): I can never beat you in anything.

(1) إسناده حسن، هشام بن سعد وإن كان فيه كلام، ذهب أبو داود إلى توثيقه وقال: هو أثبت الناس في زيد بن أسلم، قال الترمذي في حديثه هذا: حسن صحيح، وقال البزار بعد أن أخرجه في "مسنده" (270): لم نر أحدًا توقف عن حديث هشام بن سعد، ولا اعتل عليه بعلة توجب التوقف عن حديثه. وصحَّحه كذلك شيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية في "منهاج السنة" 8/ 499، وابن الملقن في "البدر المنير" 7/ 414. أبو نُعيم: هو الفضل بن دكين.

Criticism of a narrator: Although there is criticism of Hisham bin Sa'd, Imam Abu Dawud considered him the most reliable of people in the narrations of Zayd bin Aslam. Imam al-Tirmidhi called it "hasan sahih", and Imam al-Bazzar said that there is no defect in his hadith that would require abstaining from it. Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah and Ibn al-Mulaqqin also declared it sahih. Abu Nu'aym is al-Fadl bin Dukayn.
وأخرجه أبو داود (1678)، والترمذي (3675) من طرق عن أبي نعيم، بهذا الإسناد.
