[Machine] About this narration, the Prophet ﷺ heard about that slave, so he sold the slave and said, "If any of you is poor, let him start with himself.

البيهقي:٢١٥٣٧ – فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَا ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ هُوَ الْأَصَمُّ أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ أنبأ مُسْلِمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ وَعَبْدُ الْمَجِيدِ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أَبَا مَذْكُورٍ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي عُذْرَةَ كَانَ لَهُ غُلَامٌ قِبْطِيٌّ فَأَعْتَقَهُ

عَنْ دُبُرٍ مِنْهُ وَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سَمِعَ بِذَلِكَ الْعَبْدِ فَبَاعَ الْعَبْدَ وَقَالَ إِذَا كَانَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَبْدَأْ بِنَفْسِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَهُ فَضْلٌ فَلْيَبْدَأْ مَعَ نَفْسِهِ بِمَنْ يَعُولُ ثُمَّ إِنْ وَجَدَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَضْلًا فَلْيَتَصَدَّقْ عَلَى غَيْرِهِمْ وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ اللَّيْثِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ
