Usama ibn Sharik said, "I was with the Prophet ﷺ when some bedouins came. There were many people on all sides. The people were silent and no one spoke except them. They said, 'Messenger of Allah! We experience difficulty in such-and-such and such-and-such' and it was in things which are not harmful to people. He said, 'Servants of Allah! Allah has removed difficulty except in a case where a man slanders someone unjustly - that is the one who is in difficulty and destroyed.' They said, 'Messenger of Allah, can we make use of medical treatment?' 'Yes, servants of Allah,' he replied, 'you can make use of medical treatment. Allah Almighty did not create an illness but that He made a cure for it - except for one disease.' They asked, 'And what is that, Messenger of Allah?' 'Old age,' he replied. They said, 'Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a man can be given?' He replied, 'Good character'."

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَجَاءَتِ الأَعْرَابُ نَاسٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ هَاهُنَا وَهَاهُنَا فَسَكَتَ النَّاسُ لاَ يَتَكَلَّمُونَ غَيْرَهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ فِي أَشْيَاءَ مِنْ أُمُورِ النَّاسِ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهَا فَقَالَ يَا عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللَّهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلاَّ امْرَءًا اقْتَرَضَ امْرَءًا ظُلْمًا فَذَاكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَا عِبَادَ اللهِ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلاَّ وَضَعَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ قَالُوا وَمَا هِيَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ الْهَرَمُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ

I came to the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions were sitting as if they had birds on their heads. I saluted and sat down. The desert Arabs then came from here and there. They asked: Messenger of Allah, should we make use of medical treatment? He replied: Make use of medical treatment, for Allah has not made a disease without appointing a remedy for it, with the exception of one disease, namely old age.

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ كَأَنَّمَا عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمُ الطَّيْرُ فَسَلَّمْتُ ثُمَّ قَعَدْتُ فَجَاءَ الأَعْرَابُ مِنْ هَا هُنَا وَهَا هُنَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى فَقَالَ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ ﷻ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلاَّ وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ الْهَرَمُ

“I saw the Bedouins asking the Prophet ﷺ: ‘Is there any harm in such and such, is there any harm in such and such?’ He said to them: ‘O slaves of Allah! Allah has only made harm in that which transgresses the honor of one’s brother. That is what is sinful.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Is there any sin if we do not seek treatment?’ He said: ‘Seek treatment, O slaves of Allah! For Allah does not create any disease but He also creates with it the cure, except for old age.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person may be given?’ He said: ‘Good manners.’”

شَهِدْتُ الأَعْرَابَ يَسْأَلُونَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا أَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا فَقَالَ لَهُمْ عِبَادَ اللَّهِ وَضَعَ اللَّهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلاَّ مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا فَذَاكَ الَّذِي حَرَجٌ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا جُنَاحٌ أَنْ نَتَدَاوَى قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ سُبْحَانَهُ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلاَّ وَضَعَ مَعَهُ شِفَاءً إِلاَّ الْهَرَمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْعَبْدُ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ

[AI] I came to the Prophet ﷺ with his companions, and it was as if birds were perched on their heads. I greeted him and sat down. Then the Bedouins came and asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, shall we seek medical treatment?" He replied, "Yes, seek medical treatment, for Allah has not made any disease without providing a remedy for it, except for one disease, old age." Umar said, "When Usamah reached old age, he used to ask, 'Do you see any cure for me now?' They also asked him about certain matters, whether there was any difficulty in doing them or not. He said, 'O slaves of Allah, Allah has not placed any difficulty in anything except when a Muslim wrongfully takes another Muslim's property as a loan. That is a difficulty and a cause of his destruction.' They asked, 'What is the best thing given to people, O Messenger of Allah?' He replied, 'Good character.'"

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عِنْدَهُ كَأَنَّمَا عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمْ الطَّيْرُ قَالَ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَقَعَدْتُ قَالَ فَجَاءَتِ الْأَعْرَابُ فَسَأَلُوهُ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ الْهَرَمُ قَالَ وَكَانَ أُسَامَةُ حِينَ كَبِرَ يَقُولُ هَلْ تَرَوْنَ لِي مِنْ دَوَاءٍ الْآنَ؟ قَالَ وَسَأَلُوهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا قَالَ عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرَأً اقْتَرَضَ امْرَأً مُسْلِمًا ظُلْمًا فَذَلِكَ حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ النَّاسُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ

[AI] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his Companions were with him. It was as if birds were on their heads. So, I greeted and sat down. Then, some Bedouins came to ask him about certain things, until they asked, "Should we seek medication?" He said, "Seek medication, for indeed Allah the Most High has not placed a disease except that He has also placed a cure for it." Then, they asked him about other things, and he said, "O servants of Allah, hardship is placed upon people. It is not permissible for a person to borrow from another person unjustly. That is a hardship and destruction." They then asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people can be given?" He said, "Good character."

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ عِنْدَهُ كَأَنَّمَا عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمُ الطَّيْرُ فَسَلَّمْتُ وَقَعَدْتُ فَجَاءَ أَعْرَابٌ يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ حَتَّى قَالُوا أَنَتَدَاوَى قَالَ «تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً» فَسَأَلُوهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ فَقَالَ «عِبَادَ اللَّهِ وُضِعَ الْحَرَجُ لَا امْرَأً اقْتَرَضَ امْرَأً ظُلْمًا فَذَلِكَ حَرَجٌ وَهَلَكَ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ النَّاسُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ»

[AI] I witnessed the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and the Bedouins asking him, saying, "O Messenger of Allah, do we have any hardship in such a matter? Do we have any hardship in such a matter?" concerning things that are not harmful. He ﷺ said, "O slaves of Allah, Allah has relieved us of the hardship, except for the one who wrongs a Muslim's honor. That is the one who has hardship and perishes." So they said, "Should we seek medical treatment, O Messenger of Allah?" He ﷺ said, "Yes, seek medical treatment, O slaves of Allah, for Allah Almighty has not created a disease except that He has also created its cure except for one disease." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is it?" He ﷺ said, "Old age." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person can be given?" He ﷺ said, "Good manners."

شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَالْأَعْرَابُ يَسْأَلُونَهُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ لِأَشْيَاءَ لَيْسَ بِهَا بَأْسٌ فَقَالَ «عِبَادَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَضَعَ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَفَ مِنْ عِرْضِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ ظُلْمًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ» فَقَالُوا نَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ تَدَاوَوْا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ «الْهَرَمُ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ»

[AI] We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ as if birds were perched on our heads. No one among us would speak until a man from the Bedouins came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, give us your advice. Give us your advice." He replied, "O people of the Bedouins, Allah has made hardship unnecessary except for those who borrow from their brothers with the condition of repaying it. That is the hardship that destroys people." They said, "Should we seek treatment, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Yes, indeed. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has not sent any disease except that He has also sent its cure, except for one disease." They said, "And what is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Old age." They asked, "Who are the best of Allah's servants?" He said, "Those with the best manners among them." Among them were Shu'ban bin Abdur-Rahman, Ziyad bin 'Ilaqah, and Zuhair bin Mu'awiyah Al-Ju'fi.

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَأَنَّمَا عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا الطَّيْرُ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنَّا مُتَكَلِّمٌ إِذْ جَاءَهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ وَضَعَ اللَّهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ لِأَخِيهِ عِرْضًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ» قَالُوا أَفَنَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا وَمَا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «الْهَرَمُ» قَالُوا فَمَنْ أَحَبُّ عِبَادِ اللَّهِ إِلَى اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقًا» وَمِنْهُمْ شَيْبَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ وَمِنْهُمْ زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ الْجُعْفِيُّ

[AI] We were with the Prophet ﷺ as if a dove was sitting on our heads. When some Bedouins came to him and said, "O Messenger of Allah, give us advice." He replied, "O people, Allah has removed hardship from you except for one who borrows from his brother. That is the one who is facing hardship and destruction." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, can we seek medical treatment?" He said, "Yes, indeed Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has also sent down its cure, except for one disease." They asked, "What is it, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, who are the most beloved people to Allah?" He said, "The most beloved people to Allah are those who have the best character."

كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَأَنَّ عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا الرَّخَمَ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنَّا مُتَكَلِّمٌ إِذْ جَاءَهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا فقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ وَضَعَ عَنْكُمُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرَأً اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ فَذَاكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ» قَالُوا أَفَنَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا وَمَا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «الْهَرَمُ» قَالُوا فَأَيُّ النَّاسِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ « أَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقًا»

[AI] Usama ibn Sharik heard the Prophet ﷺ say, "I witnessed a scene where the Bedouins asked him, 'O Messenger of Allah, do we bear any sin in doing this?' This happened twice. He replied, 'O servants of Allah, Allah has not placed any hardship except for a person who has borrowed something from his brother and finds it difficult to repay. That is the hardship.' They asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, do we bear any sin if we seek medical treatment?' He replied, 'Seek medical treatment, O servants of Allah, for Allah has not created any disease except that He has also created its cure.' They asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a servant is given?' He replied, 'Good character.' Sufyan said, 'There is no chain of narration on the face of the earth today that is more authentic than this one.'"

سَمِعَ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ شَرِيكٍ يَقُولُ شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَالْأَعْرَابُ يَسْأَلُونَهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا جُنَاحٌ فِي كَذَا؟ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَ «عِبَادَ اللَّهِ وَضَعَ اللَّهُ الْ حَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرُؤٌ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَهَلْ عَلَيْنَا جُنَاحٌ أَنْ نَتَدَاوَى؟ فَقَالَ «تَدَاوَوْا عِبَادَ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَمَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْعَبْدُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ» قَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ الْيَوْمَ إِسْنَادٌ أَجْوَدُ مِنْ هَذَا

[AI] I came to the Prophet ﷺ at Arafat and greeted him. He had a bird on his head and the Bedouins came to him from here and there saying, "O Messenger of Allah, we have difficulties in such and such." The Prophet ﷺ said, "O servants of Allah, Allah removes difficulties except for those who unjustly oppress others by borrowing money. They are the ones who face difficulties and destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we seek medical treatment?" He replied, "Seek medical treatment, for Allah has not sent down an illness without providing a cure for it except for old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people are given?" He said, "People are not given anything better than good character."

أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بِعَرَفَاتٍ فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ وَكَانَ عَلَى رُءُوسِ أَصْحَابِهِ الطَّيْرُ فَجَاءَتْهُ الْأَعْرَابُ مِنْ هَهُنَا وَهَهُنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عِبَادَ اللهِ رَفَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنَ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ ظُلْمًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرَجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَمَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ النَّاسُ؟ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ النَّاسَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا شَيْئًا خَيْرًا مِنْ خُلُقٍ حَسَنٍ»

[AI] We were with the Prophet ﷺ when the Bedouins came, many people from here and there. The people became silent, no one spoke except for them. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do we have any difficulty in this matter? In some matters of people, is there no harm in them?" He said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has not imposed any difficulty except on him who borrows unjustly, so it is he who has the difficulty and is destroyed." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do we have any difficulty in seeking treatment?" He said, "Treat yourself, O servants of Allah, for Allah has not placed any disease except that He has also placed a cure for it, except for old age." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person can be given?" He said, "Good manners."

كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَجَاءَهُ الْأَعْرَابُ نَاسٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنْ هَهُنَا وَهَهُنَا فَأَسْكَتَ النَّاسُ لَا يَتَكَلَّمُ غَيْرُهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ فِي أَشْيَاءَ مِنْ أُمُورِ النَّاسِ لَا بَأْسَ بِهَا فَقَالَ عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ امْرَأً ظُلْمًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرَجَ وَهَلَكَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ أَنْ نَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا عِبَادَ اللهِ فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْمَرْءُ؟ قَالَ «الْخُلُقُ الْحَسَنُ»

[AI] "I witnessed the Prophet ﷺ , and the Bedouins came to him saying, 'We are facing difficulty in such and such matter, we are facing difficulty in such and such matter, is there any harm in it?' He said, 'O servants of Allah, Allah has removed all difficulty except for the one who borrows from someone and intends to repay him back. That person is the one who faces difficulty and destruction.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you seek medical treatment?' He said, 'Yes, seek medical treatment. Indeed, Allah has not revealed a disease except that He has also revealed its cure, except for one disease.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing a person can be given?' He said, 'Good manners.'"

شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَتَاهُ الْأَعْرَابُ فَقَالُوا عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا فِي أَشْيَاءَ مِنْ أُمُورِهِمْ لَا بَأْسَ بِهَا؟ فَقَالَ «عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مِنْ رَجُلٍ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرَجَ وَهَلَكَ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ»

“I saw the Bedouins asking the Prophet ﷺ: ‘Is there any harm in such and such, is there any harm in such and such?’ He said to them: ‘O slaves of Allah! Allah has only made harm in that which transgresses the honor of one’s brother. That is what is sinful.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah! Is there any sin if we do not seek treatment?’ He said: ‘Seek treatment, O slaves of Allah! For Allah does not create any disease but He also creates with it the cure, except for old age.’ They said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person may be given?’ He said: ‘Good manners.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3436)

شَهِدْتُ الْأَعْرَابَ يَسْأَلُونَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرَجَ وَقَالَ تَدَاوَوْا عِبَادَ اللهِ فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ مَعَهُ شِفَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْعَبْدُ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ»

[AI] "We used to sit with the Prophet ﷺ as if there were birds on our heads speaking. One day, some people came to him and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, give us a ruling on such and such.' He said, 'O people, Allah has made things easy for you, except for those who borrow from their brothers. That is the one who finds it difficult and gets ruined. Shouldn't I give you a cure, O Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'Yes, Allah has not sent down a disease without sending down a cure for it except for one disease.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is it?' He said, 'Old age.' They said, 'Who are the most beloved of Allah's slaves to Allah?' He said, 'The ones with the best character.'"

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَأَنَّ عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا الطَّيْرَ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنَّا مُتَكَلِّمٌ إِذْ جَاءَهُ أُنَاسٌ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا فَقَالَ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَضَعَ اللهَ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ أَخِيهِ قَرْضًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ أَفَنَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ الْهَرَمُ قَالُوا فَمَنْ أَحَبُّ عِبَادِ اللهِ إِلَى اللهِ؟ قَالَ «أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقًا»

[AI] The Bedouins came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him if there was any difficulty in something for them. The Prophet replied, "Allah has only placed difficulty on a man who borrows from his brother's wealth. That is what causes difficulty and destruction." He also said, "Allah has not sent down any disease except that He has also sent down a cure for it, except for one disease, old age."

جَاءَتِ الْأَعْرَابُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ فَقَالَ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا عَلَى رَجُلٍ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ وَقَالَ «مَا أَنْزَلَ اللهُ مِنْ دَاءٍ إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ شِفَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ»

[AI] The Bedouins came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we have difficulty in this matter, and we have difficulty in that matter." He said, "There is no difficulty. Allah has removed all difficulties except for one who has borrowed (money) and is unable to repay it. That is the only difficulty." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do you seek treatment?" He said, "Seek treatment, for Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has also sent down its cure, except for old age." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a person can be given?" He said, "Good character."

أَتَى الْأَعْرَابُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ قَالَ لَا حَرَجَ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرِءاٌ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ فَذَلِكَ الْحَرَجُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً أَلَا وَقَدْ أَنْزَلَ لَهُ شِفَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ «الْخُلُقُ الْحَسَنُ»

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ came across a group of Bedouins who had their swords slung over their shoulders. They surrounded the Prophet and started asking him questions. We felt worried for the Prophet ﷺ and approached them. We heard them asking, "Do we have any restrictions in doing this? Do we have any restrictions in doing that?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O people, Allah has not made any restrictions except for one: a man who takes a loan from his Muslim brother. That is the restriction and the cause of distress." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, can we treat ourselves for such and such ailment? Can we treat ourselves for such and such ailment?" He replied, "Treat yourselves, for Allah has not sent any disease except that He has also sent its cure except for one ailment, old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a Muslim can be given in this world?" He replied, "Good character."

أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَوْمٌ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ مُتَقَلِّدِي السُّيُوفِ فَأَكَبُّوا عَلَيْهِ يَسْأَلُونَهُ فَأَشْفَقْنَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَدَنَوْنَا مِنْهُمْ قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُهُمْ يَقُولُونَ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا رَجُلٌ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ مُسْلِمًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَتَدَاوَى مِنْ كَذَا؟ نَتَدَاوَى مِنْ كَذَا؟ قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ دَوَاءً إِلَّا الْهَرَمَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْعَبْدُ الْمُسْلِمُ فِي الدُّنْيَا؟ قَالَ «الْخُلُقُ الْحَسَنُ»

[AI] I witnessed the Prophet (PBUH), and some people from the Bedouins came to him asking about their right and left. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, do we have any restrictions in this and that?" They repeated this question to him twice. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) then said, "Allah has not made any restrictions except for those who unjustly borrow from a Muslim. That is a restriction and a destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, can we seek remedy for this and that?" They repeated this question to him twice. He said, "Yes, seek remedy, for Allah has not sent down a disease except that He has also sent down a cure for it, except for death itself." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people can be given?" He said, "Good manners."

شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَتَاهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ يَسْأَلُونَهُ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ يَسَارِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ وَضَعَ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ امْرَأً مُسْلِمًا ظُلْمًا» أَوْ قَالَ بِظُلْمٍ فَذَلِكَ حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى مِنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ مَرَّتَيْنِ قَالَ نَعَمْ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ الْهَرَمُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ النَّاسُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ»

[AI] I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when the Bedouins came from all directions, until they surrounded him, and the people became silent. They called out, "O Messenger of Allah, can you cure?" He replied, "Yes, indeed Allah has not created any disease except that He has also created its cure, except for one disease." They asked, "What is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He replied, "Old age." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that can be given to a person?" He replied, "Good manners." They called out, "O Messenger of Allah, we face difficulties in various matters. What should be done about that?" He said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has not created any difficulty except for those who borrow from others, for that is what causes difficulty and loss."

كُنْتُ جَالِسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَجَاءَ الْأَعْرَابُ مِنْ كُلِّ نَحْوٍ حَتَّى كَثُرُوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَكَتَ النَّاسُ فَنَادَوْا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَنَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا مَا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ الْهَرَمُ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ لِلْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ فَنَادَوْا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَكَذَا؟ مِمَّا يَكُونُ مِنَ النَّاسِ قَالَ «يَا عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضٍ امْرِئٍ فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ»

[AI] The Bedouins used to take advantage of the Prophet ﷺ due to their ignorance. So they came to him and said, "Messenger of Allah, we have some difficulties in this matter. Is it permissible?" He said, "There is no difficulty, hardship is removed for the servants of Allah except for those who do wrong when taking loans from their brothers. That is the hardship and he will be destroyed." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that can be given to a person?" He said, "Good character." This was narrated by Wahb ibn Isma'il from Muhammad ibn Qais and they were unsure about it. The correct narration is from Osama ibn Shareek.

كَانَ الْأَعْرَابُ إِذَا جَاءُوا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ اغْتَنَمْنَاهُمْ لِجَفَائِهِمْ فَجَاءُوا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ قَالَ لَا حَرَجَ وُضِعَ الْحَرَجُ عِبَادَ اللهِ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ بِظُلْمٍ فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْإِنْسَانُ؟ قَالَ «خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ» هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ وَهْبُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ وَهِمَ فِيهِ وَالصَّوَابُ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ شَرِيكٍ

[AI] I witnessed the Bedouins asking the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about certain things that had no harm in them, saying, "Is there any harm for us in doing so, O Messenger of Allah? Is there any harm for us in doing such and such?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has made ease and has not made difficulty, except for a man who takes a loan and does not intend to pay it back. That is a difficulty." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, shall we seek medical treatment?" He said, "Yes, Allah has not created any disease but He has also created its cure, except for one disease." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is it?" He said, "Old age."

شَهِدْتُ الْأَعْرَابَ يَسْأَلُونَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ لَيْسَ بِهَا بَأْسٌ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَا عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرَأً اقْتَرَضَ رَجُلًا مُسْلِمًا فَذَلِكَ حَرَجٌ» قَالُوا أَنَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ فَإِنَّ اللهَ لَمْ يَضَعْ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ مِنْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ شِفَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا هُوَ؟ قَالَ «الْهَرَمُ»

[AI] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his companions, and they looked like birds on their heads. So I greeted them and then sat down. Then the Bedouins came from here and there and said, "O Messenger of Allah, should we seek medical treatment?" He said, "Seek medical treatment, for Allah ﷻ has not created any disease except that He has also created its treatment, except for one disease." They asked him about things that do not cause harm to us in this and that, and he said, "O servants of Allah, Allah has not made anything difficult for you except for someone who borrows with the intention of oppressing others. That is the difficulty and destruction." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that people can be given?" He said, "Good manners."

أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ كَأَنَّمَا عَلَى رُءُوسِهِمُ الطَّيْرُ فَسَلَّمْتُ ثُمَّ قَعَدْتُ فَجَاءَ الْأَعْرَابُ مِنْ هَهُنَا وَهَهُنَا فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ نَتَدَاوَى؟ قَالَ تَدَاوَوْا فَإِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ لَمْ يَضَعْ دَاءً إِلَّا وَضَعَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ وَاحِدٍ الْهَرَمِ قَالَ وَسَأَلُوهُ عَنْ أَشْيَاءَ لَا بَأْسَ بِهَا عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا وَعَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا قَالَ عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ امْرأً ظُلْمًا فَذَاكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ النَّاسُ؟ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ

[AI] Osama bin Shareek heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, "I have witnessed the Bedouins asking the Prophet ﷺ , 'Do we have any difficulty in doing this?' He ﷺ replied, 'O slaves of Allah! Allah has made things easy for you, and there is no difficulty except in that you take a loan from your brother and intend to pay him back, but find difficulty in doing so.' They said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is the best thing that a servant can be given?' He ﷺ replied, 'Good character.'"

سَمِعَ أُسَامَةَ بْنَ شَرِيكٍ يَقُولُ شَهِدْتُ الْأَعْرَابَ يَسْأَلُونَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ هَلْ عَلَيْنَا حَرَجٌ فِي كَذَا؟ فَقَالَ عِبَادَ اللهِ وَضَعَ اللهُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا مَنِ اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ شَيْئًا فَذَلِكَ الَّذِي حَرَّجَ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا خَيْرُ مَا أُعْطِيَ الْعَبْدُ؟ قَالَ خُلُقٌ حَسَنٌ
