[Machine] O Messenger of Allah, Omar said, "I heard so-and-so mentioning and praising you, claiming that you gave him two dinars." The Prophet replied, "But that is not true. However, Omar, he did receive a sum of money from me, ranging between one hundred to ten." Then he said, "And indeed, one of you may come to me with their request, and I will give it to them while holding firmly onto it." Ahmad or someone similar said, "And it is nothing but fire." Omar then said, "O Messenger of Allah, why did you give them?" He replied, "What can I do? They ask of me and Allah refuses to make me stingy."

عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سَمِعْتُ فُلَانًا يَذْكُرُ وَيُثْنِي خَيْرًا زَعَمَ أَنَّكَ أَعْطَيْتَهُ دِينَارَيْنِ قَالَ «لَكِنْ فُلَانٌ مَا يَقُولُ ذَلِكَ وَلَقَدْ أَصَابَ مِنِّي مَا بَيْنَ مِائَةٍ إِلَى عَشَرَةٍ» قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «وَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَخْرُجُ مِنْ عِنْدِي بِمَسْأَلَتِهِ مُتَأَبِّطُهَا» قَالَ أَحْمَدُ أَوْ نَحْوَهُ «وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا نَارٌ» قَالَ فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَلِمَ تُعْطِيهُمْ؟ قَالَ «مَا أَصْنَعُ؟ يَسْأَلُونِي وَيَأْبَى اللَّهُ لِيَ الْبُخْلَ»

[Machine] He entered upon the Prophet ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, I saw so-and-so thanking you for giving him two dinars." The Prophet ﷺ said, "However, so-and-so was given what is between ten and a hundred, yet he neither thanks nor says it. Truly, one of you will come to me with his need, holding it tightly, and it is nothing but fire." I said, "O Messenger of Allah, why do you give them?" He said, "They are not satisfied except by asking me, and Allah does not like me to be stingy."

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ رَأَيْتُ فُلَانًا يَشْكُرُ ذَكَرَ أَنَّكَ أَعْطَيْتَهُ دِينَارَيْنِ فَقَالَ ﷺ «لَكِنَّ فُلَانًا قَدْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ مَا بَيْنَ الْعَشَرَةِ إِلَى الْمِئَةِ فَمَا يَشْكُرُهُ وَلَا يَقُولُهُ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَخْرُجُ مِنْ عِنْدِي لِحَاجَتِهِ مُتَأَبِّطَهَا وَمَا هِيَ إِلَّا النَّارُ» قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِمَ تُعْطِهِمْ؟ قَالَ «يَأْبَوْنَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَسْأَلُونِي وَيَأْبَى اللَّهُ لِيَ الْبُخْلَ»

"أما وَاللهِ إِنَّ أحَدَكُمْ لَيَخْرجُ بمسألتِهِ من عندي يَتَأَبّطُها وما هي له إِلا نارٌ- قال عمر: لِمَ تُعْطِيها إِياهُمْ؟ قال: ما أصنَعُ؟ -يَأبَوْنَ إِلا ذلك- ويأبى الله لي البُخْلَ".
