أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا أَبُو الطَّيِّبِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الشَّعِيرِيُّ، نا مَحْمَشُ بْنُ عِصَامٍ، نا حَفْصُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ طَهْمَانَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ صُهَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: غَزَوْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَبُوكًا فَمَرَّ بِنَا شَابٌّ نَشِيطٌ يَسُوقُ غُنَيْمَةً لَهُ فَقُلْنَا: لَوْ كَانَ شَبَابُ هَذَا وَنَشَاطُهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَانَ خَيْرًا لَهُ مِنْهَا فَانْتَهَى قَوْلُنَا حَتَّى بَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " مَا قُلْتُمْ؟ " قُلْنَا: كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ: " أَمَا إِنَّهُ إِنْ كَانَ يَسْعَى عَلَى وَالِدَيْهِ أَوْ أَحَدِهِمَا فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسْعَى عَلَى عِيَالٍ يَكْفِيهِمْ فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، وَإِنْ كَانَ يَسْعَى عَلَى نَفْسِهِ فَهُوَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: We went on the expedition of Tabuk with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). An energetic young man passed by us, and he had his goats with him. We said: If only his youth and his vigour were (spent) in the path of Allah, it would be better for him than this. Our talk had (barely) ended when it reached the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What did you say?" We said: We said such and such. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If he is striving for (the service of) his parents or one of them, he is in the path of Allah; if he is striving to provide for his family, he is in the path of Allah; and if he is striving for (the needs of) himself, he is in the path of Allah."
