adab:390

'Abdullah said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, swore an oath like one of the oaths that people swear and a man of the Ansar said, 'By Allah, it is not an oath by which the Face of Allah Almighty is desired." I said, 'I will tell the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. I went to him while he was with his Companions and I spoke to him in confidence. It clearly affected him greatly, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and his face changed colour so that I wished that I had not told him. Then he said, 'Musa was injured with greater than that and he endured it.'"

bukhari:6100ʿUmar b. Ḥafṣ from my father > al-Aʿmash > Shaqīq

The Prophet ﷺ divided and distributed something as he used to do for some of his distributions. A man from the Ansar said, "By Allah, in this division the pleasure of Allah has not been intended." I said, "I will definitely tell this to the Prophet ﷺ ." So I went to him while he was sitting with his companions and told him of it secretly. That was hard upon the Prophet ﷺ and the color of his face changed, and he became so angry that I wished I had not told him. The Prophet ﷺ then said, "Moses was harmed with more than this, yet he remained patient."

bukhari:6291ʿAbdān > Abū Ḥamzah > al-Aʿmash > Shaqīq > ʿAbdullāh

One day the Prophet ﷺ divided and distributed something amongst the people whereupon an Ansari man said, "In this division Allah's Countenance has not been sought." I said, "By Allah! I will go (and inform) the Prophet." So I went to him while he was with a group of people, and I secretly informed him of that, whereupon he became so angry that his face became red, and he then said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on Moses (for) he was hurt more than that, yet he remained patient."

قَسَمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَوْمًا قِسْمَةً فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَقِسْمَةٌ مَا أُرِيدَ بِهَا وَجْهُ اللَّهِ قُلْتُ أَمَا وَاللَّهِ لآتِيَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُهُ وَهْوَ فِي مَلأٍ فَسَارَرْتُهُ فَغَضِبَ حَتَّى احْمَرَّ وَجْهُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى مُوسَى أُوذِيَ بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْ هَذَا فَصَبَرَ
