[Machine] Spring was given a horse or bought one for thirty thousand. Then he went on a raid, and said, "Then he sent his servant Yahsha to fetch the horse. Yahsha came and said, 'Oh, Spring, where is your horse?' He said, 'It was stolen, O Yahsha.' Yahsha said, 'And you were looking at it?' He said, 'Yes, O Yahsha, I was busy praying to my Lord, and it did not distract me from praying to my Lord at all. O Allah, if he (the thief) was rich, then guide him, and if he was poor, then enrich him, three times.'"
