Hadith 71
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ ابْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: "مَا سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ شَيْئًا قَطُّ، فَقَالَ: لَا"، قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد: قَالَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ: إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُ وَعَدَ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was never an occasion when something was asked from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and he refused to give it. Imam Darimi Abu Muhammad said: Ibn ‘Uyaynah narrated that if that thing was not present with him, he would promise to give it.

Hadith Commentary:
This was the extent of your (the Prophet’s) magnanimity; in fact, if you had it (the item requested), you would give it at that very moment, otherwise you would promise the person that soon you would give it to him—sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. And it does not necessarily follow from this that you would never offer an excuse, as is found in His statement, the Exalted: “Say: I do not find anything upon which to mount you” ().
That is, it does not follow from this that in the case of not having something, you would not even offer an excuse, as in the aforementioned verse where, on one occasion, you said to some people that at that moment you did not have an animal for them to ride.

Hadith Commentary:
Whenever worldly wealth or possessions were requested from the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), he did not refuse to give. If he did not have anything, he would remain silent. If there was hope of obtaining it soon or later, he would intend to give it.
