ahmad:3626Abū Muʿāwiyah > al-Aʿmash > Ibrāhīm al-Taymī > al-Ḥārith b. Sūwayd > ʿAbdullāh

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Which one of you loves the wealth of his inheritors more than his own wealth?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, none of us loves his wealth more than the wealth of his inheritors." He said, "Know that there is none among you but that the wealth of his inheritor is dearer to him than his own wealth. Your wealth is only what you send forth, and the wealth of your inheritors is what you leave behind." The Prophet ﷺ also said, "What do you consider as the bravest among you?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, the one who is not afraid of the men." He said, "No, but the truly brave is the one who can control himself when he is angry." The Prophet ﷺ also said, "What do you consider as the most virtuous among you?" They said, "O Messenger of Allah, the one who does not have any children." He said, "No, but the most virtuous is the one who does not withhold anything from his children."  

أحمد:٣٦٢٦حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيِّ عَنْ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّكُمْ مَالُ وَارِثِهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَالِهِ؟ قَالَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا مِنَّا أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَالُهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَالِ وَارِثِهِ قَالَ اعْلَمُوا أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا مَالُ وَارِثِهِ أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَالِهِ مَا لَكَ مِنْ مَالِكَ إِلَّا مَا قَدَّمْتَ وَمَالُ وَارِثِكِ مَا أَخَّرْتَ قَالَ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا تَعُدُّونَ فِيكُمُ الصُّرَعَةَ؟ قَالَ قُلْنَا الَّذِي لَا يَصْرَعُهُ الرِّجَالُ قَالَ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنِ الصُّرَعَةُ الَّذِي يَمْلِكُ نَفْسَهُ عِنْدَ الْغَضَبِ قَالَ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا تَعُدُّونَ فِيكُمُ الرَّقُوبَ؟ قَالَ قُلْنَا الَّذِي لَا وَلَدَ لَهُ قَالَ لَا وَلَكِنِ الرَّقُوبُ الَّذِي لَمْ يُقَدِّمْ مِنْ وَلَدِهِ شَيْئًا
