[Machine] I arrived at the camp and met Abu Dhar. I said, "O Abu Dhar, what is your wealth?" He said, "My wealth is my actions." I said, "O Abu Dhar, won't you tell me a hadith that you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said, "Yes, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'No Muslim couple has three children who do not reach the age of puberty, but Allah will admit them to Paradise by His mercy.'" And I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'No man spends on his two wives in the cause of Allah, but the two gates of Paradise will be opened for him.'" I asked, "And what are the two wives from his wealth?" He said, "Two servants from his slaves, two horsemen from his horses, and two camels from his camels."  

قَدِمْتُ الرَّبَذَةَ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا مَالُكَ؟ قَالَ مَالِي عَمَلِي قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ أَلَا تُحَدِّثُنِي حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ بَلَى سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ يَمُوتُ لَهُمَا ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنَ الْوَلَدِ لَمْ يَبْلُغُوا الْحِنْثَ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُمَا اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِفَضْلِ رَحْمَتِهِ إِيَّاهُمْ» وَسَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَنْفَقَ زَوْجَيْنِ مِنْ مَالِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا ابْتَدَرَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ» قُلْتُ وَمَا زَوْجَانِ مِنْ مَالِهِ؟ قَالَ عَبْدَانِ مِنْ رَقِيقِهِ فَرْسَانِ مِنْ خَيْلِهِ بَعِيرَانِ مِنْ إِبِلِهِ  

[Machine] I met Abu Dhar wearing a cloak, and he had attached a pouch to it. He poured water into it, then he released it so that his camel could drink from it and give water to its companions. This is a characteristic of the Arabs' noble conduct. So I said, "O Abu Dhar, what is your situation?" He replied, "I have my own wealth." I asked, "O Abu Dhar, what have you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?" He said, "I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever spends on two, his two sides will obstruct him from entering Paradise.'" I asked, "O Abu Dhar, what are these two sides?" He said, "If they are men, then it is two men, and if they are horses, then it is two horses, and if they are camels, then it is two camels." He counted all categories of wealth until he had mentioned all types. I said, "Yes, O Abu Dhar." He said, "I have heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'No two Muslims die, having three children, except that Allah admits them to Paradise through His mercy.'"  

لَقِيتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ بِالرَّبَذَةِ وَقَدْ أَوْرَدَ رَوَاحِلَ لَهُ فَسَقَاهَا ثُمَّ أَصْدَرَهَا وَقَدْ عَلَّقَ قِرْبَةً فِي عُنُقِ رَاحِلَةٍ لَهُ مِنْهَا لِيَشْرَبَ مِنْهَا وَيَسْقِي أَصْحَابَهُ وَذَلِكَ خُلُقٌ مِنْ أَخْلَاقِ الْعَرَبِ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا مَالُكَ؟ قَالَ مَالِي عَمَلِي قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا سَمِعْتَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ؟ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ أَنْفَقَ زَوْجَيْنِ مِنْ مَالِهِ ابْتَدَرَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ» قُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا هَذَانِ الزَّوْجَانِ؟ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ رِجَالًا فَرَجُلَانِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ خَيْلًا فَفَرَسَانِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ إِبِلًا فَبَعِيرَانِ حَتَّى عَدَّ أَصْنَافَ الْمَالِ كُلَّهُ قُلْتُ إِيهٍ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ يَمُوتُ لَهُمَا ثَلَاثَةُ أَوْلَادٍ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُمَا اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِفَضْلِ رَحْمَتِهِ»  

[Machine] I met Abu Dharr, who was riding a camel or leading it by its neck. I said, "Abu Dharr, what's wrong with you?" He replied, "I am busy with my work." I asked him, "Can you tell me something you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ?" He said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'No two Muslims die while they have three offspring who do not reach the age of accountability except that Allah admits them to Paradise by virtue of His mercy. And no Muslim spends on his two wives in the way of Allah except that the curtains of Paradise are opened for him.'" And Abu al-Hasan Ali bin Ahmad bin Abdan informed us, who said, Ahmad bin Ubayd narrated to us, who said, Muhammad bin Isa al-Wasiti narrated to us, who said, Amr bin Awn narrated to us, from Hushaym, from Mansur, and from Yunus, from Al-Hasan, who mentioned it in a similar manner as the previous narration, except that he added, "Except that the curtains of Paradise greet him, and all of them call him towards what he desires." I asked, "How is that?" He replied, "If it is men, then two men, and if it is camels, then two camels, and if it is sheep, then two sheep."  

لَقِيتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ ؓ يَقُودُ جَمَلًا لَهُ أَوْ يَسُوقُهُ فِي عُنُقِهِ قِرْبَةٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا لَكَ؟ قَالَ لِي عَمَلِي فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا لَكَ؟ قَالَ لِي عَمَلِي ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ أَلَا تُحَدِّثُنِي شَيْئًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمَيْنِ يَمُوتُ لَهُمَا ثَلَاثَةٌ يَعْنِي مِنَ الْوَلَدِ لَمْ يَبْلُغُوا الْحِنْثَ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُمَا اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِفَضْلِ رَحْمَتِهِ إِيَّاهُمْ وَمَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ أَنْفَقَ زَوْجَيْنِ مِنْ مَالِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ إِلَّا ابْتَدَرَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ 18565 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدَانَ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى الْوَاسِطِيُّ ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ ثنا هُشَيْمٌ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ وَيُونُسَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمَعْنَاهُ زَادَ إِلَّا اسْتَقْبَلَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ كُلُّهُمْ يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى مَا قِبَلَهُ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ إِنْ كَانَ رِجَالًا فَرَجُلَيْنِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ إِبِلًا فَبَعِيرَيْنِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ غَنَمًا فَشَاتَيْنِ
