[Machine] A man from Najran came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wearing a gold ring. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him and did not ask him about anything. The man returned to his wife and told her what had happened. She said, "You have a matter, so go back to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ." He returned to the Prophet ﷺ and threw his ring and cloak at him. When he sought permission to enter, he was granted it and the Prophet ﷺ greeted him. The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, you turned away from me before I came to you." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "You came to me with a flame of fire in your hand." The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, I indeed came with a great deal of fire." He had brought some jewelry from Bahrain. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "What you have brought is not of importance to us, except that which the stones of the Haram have made permissible. However, it is the enjoyment of worldly life." The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, excuse me to your companions so that they do not think you were angry with me about something." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ excused him and informed them that the matter was due to his gold ring.
أَنَّ رَجُلًا قَدِمَ مِنْ نَجْرَانَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْهِ خَاتَمُ ذَهَبٍ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يَسْأَلْهُ عَنْ شَيْءٍ فَرَجَعَ الرَّجُلُ إِلَى امْرَأَتِهِ فَحَدَّثَهَا فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ لَكَ لَشَأْنًا فَارْجِعْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَلْقَى خَاتَمَهُ وَجُبَّةً كَانَتْ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا اسْتَأْذَنَ أُذِنَ لَهُ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَعْرَضْتَ عَنِّي قَبْلُ حِينَ جِئْتُكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّكَ جِئْتَنِي وَفِي يَدِكَ جَمْرَةٌ مِنْ نَارٍ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَقَدْ جِئْتُ إِذًا بِجَمْرٍ كَثِيرٍ وَكَانَ قَدْ قَدِمَ بِحُلِيٍّ مِنَ الْبَحْرَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ مَا جِئْتَ بِهِ غَيْرُ مُغْنٍ عَنَّا شَيْئًا إِلَّا مَا أَغْنَتْ حِجَارَةُ الْحَرَّةِ وَلَكِنَّهُ مَتَاعُ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اعْذُرْنِي فِي أَصْحَابِكَ لَا يَظُنُّونَ أَنَّكَ سَخِطْتَ عَلَيَّ بِشَيْءٍ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَذَرَهُ وَأَخْبَرَ أَنَّ الَّذِي كَانَ مِنْهُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ لِخَاتَمِهِ الذَّهَبِ
