[Machine] Affan and his companion used to perform a lot of Hajj, and they said, "We came across a man from the people of the desert. The Bedouin said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took me by the hand and began to teach me what Allah had taught him. One of the things I learned from him was that he said, 'If you give up something for the sake of Allah, Allah will give you something better in return.'"  

أحمد:٢٠٧٤٦ – حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ هِلَالٍ قَالَ عَفَّانُ فِي حَدِيثِهِ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ وَأَبُو الْدَّهْمَاءِ قَالَ

عَفَّانُ وَكَانَا يُكْثِرَانِ الْحَجَّ قَالَا أَتَيْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَقَالَ الْبَدَوِيُّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يُعَلِّمُنِي مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللهُ فَكَانَ فِيمَا حَفِظْتُ عَنْهُ أَنْ قَالَ إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَدَعَ شَيْئًا اتِّقَاءً لِلَّهِ إِلَّا آتَاكَ اللهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ

[Machine] Abu Qatada and Abu Dahma said: We used to travel extensively in the direction of this house (i.e. the Kaaba). They said: We once came across a man from the people of the desert. The Bedouin said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ took me by the hand and started teaching me what Allah had taught him. He said: Verily, if you refrain from anything out of God-consciousness or fear of Allah, Allah will grant you something better than it.

عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ وَأَبِي الدَّهْمَاءِ قَالَا كَانَا يُكْثِرَانِ السَّفَرَ نَحْوَ هَذَا الْبَيْتِ قَالَا أَتَيْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةِ فَقَالَ الْبَدَوِيُّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَعَلَ يُعَلِّمُنِي مِمَّا عَلَّمَهُ اللهُ وَقَالَ إِنَّكَ لَنْ تَدَعَ شَيْئًا اتِّقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَاكَ اللهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ

[Machine] Abu Qatadah and Abu Dahma narrated to us that they used to travel frequently to Mecca. They said, "We came across a man from the people of the desert, and he said, 'The Bedouin took my hand and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ taught me from the knowledge that Allah had bestowed upon him. One of the things I learned from him is that he said, 'Do not leave something out of fear of Allah except that Allah will give you something better than it.'"

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو قَتَادَةَ وَأَبُو الدَّهْمَاءِ وَكَانَا يُكْثِرَانِ السَّفَرَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ قَالَا أَتَيْنَا عَلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَادِيَةَ فَقَالَ الْبَدَوِيُّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَعَلَ يُعَلِّمُنِي مِمَّا عِلْمِهُ اللهُ فَكَانَ مِمَّا حَفِظْتُ عَنْهُ أَنْ قَالَ «لَا تَدَعْ شَيْئًا اتِّقَاءَ اللهِ إِلَّا أَعْطَاكَ اللهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ»
