[Machine] No, by Allah, I will not ask anyone for anything after what Sahl ibn al-Hanzaliyyah told me. He said: I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when 'Uyaynah ibn Badr al-Fazari and al-Aqra' ibn Habis al-Tamimi came to him. They asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for something, so he called Mu'awiyah, may Allah have mercy on him, and commanded him with something that I do not know. So Mu'awiyah came with two scrolls that he was carrying, and he threw one of the scrolls to 'Uyaynah. 'Uyaynah was the more sensible of the two men, so he took it and tied it to his turban, and he threw the other scroll to al-Aqra' ibn Habis. He said, "What is in it?" He said, "It contains what you commanded." He said, "What an imposing group of people, if I come to them with a scroll that I am carrying and do not know what it contains, like the scroll of the Mutalammis." He said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned to a man who was speaking to him, and when he heard his speech, he took the scroll and opened it, and there was a camel inside it. He said, 'Where is the owner of this camel?' It was sought but not found, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Fear Allah with regard to these beasts, consume them fat and ride them in good health.' Then he left until he entered his house and I was with him. Suddenly he said, speaking in an angry tone, 'Whoever asks people about the source of their wealth, he is only increasing his share of the fires of Hell.' So I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is the source of wealth?' He said, 'To know that, in their homes, they have what feeds them and provides them with dinner.'"
لَا وَاللهِ لَا أَسْأَلُ أَحَدًا شَيْئًا بَعْدَ الَّذِي حَدَّثَنِي سَهْلُ ابْنُ الْحَنْظَلِيَّةِ قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَتَاهُ عُيَيْنَةُ بْنُ بَدْرٍ الْفَزَارِيُّ وَالْأَقْرَعُ بْنُ حَابِسٍ التَّمِيمِيُّ فَسَأَلَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَدَعَا مُعَاوِيَةَ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ فَأَمَرَهُ بِشَيْءٍ لَا أَدْرِي مَا هُوَ فَأَقْبَلَ مُعَاوِيَةُ بِصَحِيفَتَيْنِ يَحْمِلُهُمَا فَأَلْقَى إِحْدَى الصَّحِيفَتَيْنِ إِلَى عُيَيْنَةَ وَكَانَ أَحْلَمَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ فَأَخَذَهَا فَرَبَطَهَا فِي عِمَامَتِهِ وَأَلْقَى الْأُخْرَى إِلَى الْأَقْرَعِ بْنِ حَابِسٍ قَالَ مَا فِيهَا؟ قَالَ فِيهَا الَّذِي أَمَرْتَ بِهِ قَالَ بِئْسَ وَافِدُ قَوْمٍ إِنْ أَنَا جِئْتُهُمْ بِصَحِيفَةٍ أَحْمِلُهَا لَا أَدْرِي مَا فِيهَا كَصَحِيفَةِ الْمُتَلَمِّسِ قَالَ وَرَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مُقْبِلٌ عَلَى رَجُلٍ يُحَدِّثُهُ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ مَقَالَتَهُ أَخَذَ الصَّحِيفَةَ فَفَضَّهَا فَإِذَا بَعِيرٌ مُنَاخٌ فَقَالَ «أَيْنَ صَاحِبُ هَذَا الْبَعِيرِ؟» فَابْتُغِيَ فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اتَّقُوا اللهَ فِي هَذِهِ الْبَهَائِمِ كُلُوهَا سِمَانًا وَارْكَبُوهَا صِحَاحًا» ثُمَّ مَضَى حَتَّى دَخَلَ مَنْزِلَهُ وَأَنَا مَعَهُ فَطَفِقَ يَقُولُ كَالْمُتَسَخِّطِ «مَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى فَإِنَّمَا يَسْتَكْثِرُ مِنْ جَمْرِ جَهَنَّمَ» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَمَا ظَهْرُ الْغِنَى؟ قَالَ «أَنْ تَعْلَمَ أَنَّ عِنْدَ أَهْلِهِ مَا يُغَدِّيهِمْ أَوْ يُعَشِّيهِمْ»
