ahmad:24394Aswad > Sharīk > Hishām b. ʿUrwah > Abīhiʿan ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said: "This world is a sweet and pleasant greenery. Whoever gives us something of it with a good intention from us, a good taste from it, and without being extravagant, it will be blessed for him. But whoever gives us something of it with a bad intention from us, a bad taste from it, and being extravagant, it will not be blessed for him."  

أحمد:٢٤٣٩٤حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِعَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ فَمَنْ آتَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِطِيبِ نَفْسٍ مِنَّا وَطِيبِ طُعْمَةٍ مِنْهُ وَلَا إِشْرَاهٍ مِنْهُ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَمَنْ آتَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِغَيْرِ طِيبِ نَفْسٍ مِنَّا وَغَيْرِ طِيبِ طُعْمَةٍ وَإِشْرَاهٍ مِنْهُ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ

ذِكْرُ الْإِخْبَارِ عَنِ الشَّرَائِطِ الَّتِي إِذَا أَخَذَ الْمَرْءُ الْمَالَ بِهَا بُورِكَ لَهُ

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Verily, this world is green and sweet, so whoever is given something from it with a good heart and a pleasant taste, then it is blessed for him. And whoever is given something from it without a good heart and a pleasant taste, and while his soul is greedy, then it is not blessed for him."  

ابن حبّان:٣٢١٥أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا تَمِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْتَصِرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ الْأَزْرَقُ عَنْ شَرِيكٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ فَمَنْ أَعْطَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِطِيبِ نَفْسٍ مِنَّا وَحَسَنِ طُعْمَةٍ مِنْهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ شَرِهِ نَفْسٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَمَنْ أَعْطَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِغَيْرِ طِيبِ نَفْسٍ مِنَّا وَحَسَنِ طُعْمَةٍ مِنْهُ وَإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ كَانَ غَيْرَ مُبَارَكٍ لَهُ فِيهِ»
