ahmad-zuhd:1914ʿAbdullāh from my father > Hārūn > Ḍamrah > Ibn Shawdhab > Farqad

[Machine] I heard Farqadan saying, "Indeed, you wore the clothes of leisure before work. Haven't you seen the worker, when he works, how he wears his least clothes? But when he finishes, he washes and puts on clean clothes. And you, you wore the clothes of leisure before work."  

الزهد لأحمد:١٩١٤حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ حَدَّثَنَا ضَمْرَةُ عَنِ ابْنِ شَوْذَبٍ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ فَرْقَدًا يَقُولُ «إِنَّكُمْ لَبِسْتُمْ ثِيَابَ الْفَرَاغِ قَبْلَ الْعَمَلِ أَلَمْ تَرَوْا إِلَى الْعَامِلِ إِذَا عَمِلَ كَيْفَ يَلْبَسُ أَدْنَى ثِيَابِهِ فَإِذَا فَرَغَ اغْتَسَلَ وَلَبِسَ ثَوْبَيْنِ نَقِيَّيْنِ وَأَنْتُمْ لَبِسْتُمْ ثِيَابَ الْفَرَاغِ قَبْلَ الْعَمَلِ»
