I went to the Prophet ﷺ with two men from Ashʿari tribe. I said (to the Prophet), "I do not know that they want employment." The Prophet ﷺ said, "No, we do not appoint for our jobs anybody who demands it earnestly."
أَقْبَلْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَمَعِي رَجُلاَنِ مِنَ الأَشْعَرِيِّينَ فَقُلْتُ مَا عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُمَا يَطْلُبَانِ الْعَمَلَ فَقَالَ لَنْ أَوْ لاَ نَسْتَعْمِلُ عَلَى عَمَلِنَا مَنْ أَرَادَهُ
