ahmad-zuhd:737ʿAbdullāh from my father > Yazīd > al-Masʿūdī > Abū Ḥuṣayn > ʿAbdullāh b. Bābāh

[Machine] Abu Darda said, "Indeed, earning money from lawful means is little. So whoever earns money unlawfully, he puts it in its proper place. And whoever earns money unlawfully, he puts it in a place other than its rightful place, and that is a fatal disease. And whoever earns money from its lawful source, he puts it in its rightful place, and that washes away sins just as water washes away dirt from Al-Safa."  

الزهد لأحمد:٧٣٧حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَنْبَأَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بَابَاهٍ قَالَ

قَالَ أَبُو الدَّرْدَاءِ إِنَّ كَسْبَ الْمَالِ مِنْ سَبِيلِ الْحَلَالِ قَلِيلٌ فَمَنْ كَسِبَ مَالًا مِنْ غَيْرِ حِلِّهِ فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حَقِّهِ وَمَنْ كَسِبَ مَالًا مِنْ غَيْرِ حِلِّهِ فَوَضَعَهُ فِي غَيْرِ حَقِّهِ فَذَلِكَ الدَّاءُ الْعُضَالُ وَمَنْ كَسِبَ مَالًا مِنْ حِلِّهِ فَوَضَعَهُ فِي حَقِّهِ فَذَلِكَ يَغْسِلُ الذُّنُوبَ كَمَا يَغْسِلُ الْمَاءُ التُّرَابَ عَنِ الصَّفَا
