[Machine] "He brought with him two fatty camels to the city during a time of drought and scarcity of crops. When the people of the city saw them, they were amazed by their fatness. I mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , so he sent a messenger to them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then came to see them and looked at them, and said, 'Why did you bring these camels?' He replied, 'I wanted to have a servant with them.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, 'Who among you has a servant?' Uthman ibn Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) said, 'I have one, O Messenger of Allah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Bring him.' Uthman brought him, and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw him, he was black. He said, 'I wanted one like him.' Uthman said, 'You can take him.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took his camels and said to the black servant, 'O Aswad, ask me for advice.' He said, 'Can I control my tongue?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, 'Do you have control over your tongue?' He replied, 'How can I control it if I don't have control over myself?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked, 'Can you control your hand?' He replied, 'What can I control if I don't have control over myself?' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ then said, 'Do not speak with your tongue except with good, and do not extend your hand except for goodness.'"
