ahmad:21329Muḥammad b. Fuḍayl > Sālim / Ibn Abū Ḥafṣah > Sālim b. Abū al-Jaʿd > Abū Dhar And Manṣūr > Zayd b. Wahb > Abū Dhar

[Machine] To me, the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "O Abu Dharr, which mountain is this?" I said, "It is Mount Uhud, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "By the One in whose hand is my soul, it does not please me that it be a mountain of gold that I spend in the path of Allah and leave even a qirat from it." I said, "A chest, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "A qirat." He repeated it three times, and then he said, "O Abu Dharr, I only say what is lesser, and I do not say what is greater."

لِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ أَيُّ جَبَلٍ هَذَا؟ قُلْتُ أُحُدٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّهُ لِي ذَهَبًا قِطَعًا أُنْفِقُهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ أَدَعُ مِنْهُ قِيرَاطًا قَالَ قُلْتُ قِنْطَارًا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ قِيرَاطًا قَالَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ إِنَّمَا أَقُولُ الَّذِي هُوَ أَقَلُّ وَلَا أَقُولُ الَّذِي هُوَ أَكْثَرُ
