ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الْغِنَى الَّذِي وَصَفْنَاهُ قَبْلُ

ibnhibban:680ʿUmar b. Muḥammad al-Hamdānī > Bundār > Abū Dāwud > Shuʿbah > ʿUmar b. Sulaymān > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Abān from his father

[Machine] I said, "I was not sent with this hour except for one reason. I asked him about it, and he said, 'We asked about matters we heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'May Allah brighten the face of a person who hears a Hadith from us and transmits it to others who have greater understanding than him. And may Allah darken the face of a person who hears a Hadith from us and transmits it to others who have lesser understanding than him. There are three things which do not cause a Muslim's heart to deviate: sincerity of action for Allah, sincere advice to the leaders, and the adherence to the Jama'ah. Their supplications surround those who come after them. Whoever's intention is for this world, Allah will scatter his affairs and make poverty appear before his eyes. And he will not receive from this world except what has been decreed for him. And whoever's intention is for the Hereafter, Allah will bring his affairs together and make richness settle in his heart. And this world will come to him despite being reluctant.'"  

ابن حبّان:٦٨٠أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بُنْدَارٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ أَبَانَ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ خَرَجَ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ مَرْوَانَ نِصْفَ النَّهَارِ قَالَ

قُلْتُ مَا بَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ هَذِهِ السَّاعَةَ إِلَّا لِشَيْءٍ سَأَلَهُ عَنْهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فقَالَ سَأَلَنَا عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ سَمِعْنَاهَا مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «نَضَّرَ اللَّهُ امْرَأً سَمِعَ مِنَّا حَدِيثًا فَبَلَّغَهُ غَيْرَهُ فَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَهُ مِنْهُ وَرُبَّ حَامِلِ فِقْهٍ لَيْسَ بِفَقِيهٍ ثَلَاثٌ لَا يُغَلُّ عَلَيْهِنَّ قَلْبُ مُسْلِمٍ إِخْلَاصُ الْعَمَلِ لِلَّهِ وَمُنَاصَحَةُ وُلَاةِ الْأَمْرِ وَلُزُومُ الْجَمَاعَةِ فَإِنَّ دَعْوَتَهُمْ تُحِيطُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ وَمَنْ كَانَتِ الدُّنْيَا نِيَّتَهُ فَرَّقَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ أَمْرَهُ وَجَعَلَ فَقْرَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَلَمْ يَأْتِهِ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا إِلَّا مَا كُتِبَ لَهُ وَمَنْ كَانَتِ الْآخِرَةُ نِيَّتَهُ جَمَعَ اللَّهُ لَهُ أَمْرَهُ وَجَعَلَ غِنَاهُ فِي قَلْبِهِ وَأَتَتْهُ الدُّنْيَا وَهِيَ رَاغِمَةٌ»

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up in Khaif in Mina, and said: ‘May Allah make his face shine, the man who hears my words and conveys them. It may be that the bearer of knowledge does not understand it, and it may be that he takes it to one who will understand it more than he does. There are three things in which the heart of the believer does not betray: sincerity of action for the sake of Allah, offering sincere advice to the rulers of the Muslims, and adhering to the Jama’ah (main body of the Muslims). Their supplication is answered (i.e. encompassing every good, and all of the people).”

[Machine] I heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he said, "May Allah brighten the face of a person who hears from us a hadith and memorizes it until he conveys it to others, for many carriers of knowledge are not knowledgeable themselves, and many carriers of knowledge pass it on to others who are more knowledgeable than them. There are three qualities that a Muslim's heart should never be deprived of: sincerity in actions for the sake of Allah, advising the rulers, and remaining in the congregation. Indeed, their supplication encompasses those behind them. He also said, "Whoever's main concern is the Hereafter, Allah will bring together his affairs, make contentment in his heart, and the world will come to him while he is in need. And whoever's intention is the world, Allah will scatter his affairs, make poverty between his eyes, and he will only receive from the world what was destined for him." We also asked about the middle prayer, which is the Dhuhr prayer.
