[Machine] So I said, "I will not return to my family until I meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." Then I mounted my ride and went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, they claim that whoever does not emigrate will be destroyed." He said, "No, except for Abu Wahb. Go back to Abu Tahir in Makkah." He said, "While I was sleeping, a thief came and took my garment from under my head. I caught up with him and brought him to the Prophet ﷺ. I said, "Indeed, this man stole my garment." So he ordered that it be cut into pieces. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, this is not what I intended. There is a charity upon him." He said, "Why didn't you say so before bringing him to me?"  

أحمد:٢٧٦٣٧حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَفْصَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ خَلَفٍ قِيلَ لَهُ هَلَكَ مَنْ لَمْ يُهَاجِرْ؟ قَالَ

[Machine] So I said, "I will not go to my family until I meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." I rode on my camel and went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, they claim that whoever does not migrate will perish." He said, "No, except for Abu Wahb. Go back to Abaatih in Makkah." He said, "While I was sleeping, a thief came and took my garment from under my head. I caught him and brought him to the Prophet ﷺ. I said, "He stole my garment." The Prophet ﷺ ordered that it be cut. I said, "O Messenger of Allah, this was meant as charity for him." He said, "Why didn't you give it to him before bringing him to me?"
