[Machine] My brother Sa'id ibn Hurayth narrated to me that he had companionship with the Prophet ﷺ and he was a good brother to me. I was inclined towards Kufa, so I sought his permission to sell the house. He granted me permission to sell it and said to me, "O brother, withhold your hand from the price of this house and do not decrease anything from it, if you are able. For I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, 'Whoever among you sells a house or a piece of land, there will be no blessings in it for him except if he puts it in something similar.' So I believed my brother's words and sought the blessings by following the words of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and I sold some of our houses accordingly. And Allah blessed us with what is better."
حَدَّثَنِي أَخِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ حُرَيْثٍ وَكَانَ لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَكَانَ نِعْمَ الْأَخُ فَكُنْتُ أَهْوَى الْكُوفَةَ فَاسْتَأْذَنْتُهُ فِي بَيْعِ الدَّارِ فَأَذِنَ بِبَيْعِهَا فَقَالَ لِي يَا أَخِي أَمْسِكْ يَدَكَ عَنْ ثَمَنِ هَذِهِ الدَّارِ وَلَا تُنْقِصْ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا وَأَنْتَ تَسْتَطِيعُ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ بَاعَ مِنْكُمْ دَارًا أَوْ عَقَارًا فَمَا يُبَارَكُ لَهُ فِيهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يَجْعَلَهُ فِي مِثْلِهِ» فَصَدَّقْتُ أَخِي بِقَوْلِهِ وَالْتَمَسْتُ الْبَرَكَةَ بِقَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَابْتَعْتُ بَعْضَ دَارِنَا هَذِهِ مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَأعْقَبَنَا اللهُ بِهَا مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ
