Hadith 1685
أَخْبَرَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي
اللَّيْثُ، حَدَّثَنِي
يُونُسُ، عَنْ
ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ
سَالِمٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: قَالَ
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: سَمِعْتُ
عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، يَقُولُ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعْطِينِي الْعَطَاءَ فَأَقُولُ: أَعْطِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي . فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "خُذْ،
وَمَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَالِ وَأَنْتَ غَيْرُ مُسْرِفٍ وَلَا سَائِلٍ، فَخُذْهُ، وَمَا لَا، فَلَا تُتْبِعْهُ نَفْسَكَ".
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said that I heard Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) saying: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to give me wealth, and I would say: Give it to someone who is more in need of it than me. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: “Take whatever Allah gives you from this wealth without greed or asking for it, and do not let your heart pursue what you do not receive.”
