وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ
يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ
سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ :
" كَانَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَوَّلَ النَّاسِ ضَيَّفَ الضَّيْفَ، وَأَوَّلَ النَّاسِ اخْتَتَنَ، وَأَوَّلَ النَّاسِ قَصَّ الشَّارِبَ، وَأَوَّلَ النَّاسِ رَأَى الشَّيْبَ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَبِّ مَا هَذَا ؟ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى : وَقَارٌ يَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَبِّ زِدْنِي وَقَارًا " .
Said al-Musayyib that it was Ibrahim (peace be upon him) who first hosted a guest, and he was the first to perform circumcision, and the first to trim the mustache, and the first to see a white hair and say: "O Lord! What is this?" Allah, Glorious and Exalted, said: "This is dignity and respect." Ibrahim (peace be upon him) said: "So O Lord! Increase me in dignity."
