"We will never employ or we shall not employ (the narrator is doubtful) in our work one who wants it."

أبو داود:٣٥٧٩ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا قُرَّةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حُمَيْدُ بْنُ هِلاَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بُرْدَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو مُوسَى

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَنْ نَسْتَعْمِلَ أَوْ لاَ نَسْتَعْمِلُ عَلَى عَمَلِنَا مَنْ أَرَادَهُ
