حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
" لَأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَحْبُلَهُ ثُمَّ يَأْتِيَ الْجَبَلَ فَيَأْتِيَ بِحُزْمَةٍ مِنْ حَطَبٍ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ، فَيَبِيعَهَا، فَيَسْتَغْنِيَ بِثَمَنِهَا، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ، أَعْطَوْهُ أَوْ مَنَعُوهُ

✧ That one of you should take his ropes, then go to the mountain and bring a bundle of firewood on his back, then sell it and become self-sufficient with its price, is better for him than asking people, whether they give him or refuse him.

رواه هشام بن عروة واختلف عنه فرواه سليمان بن بلال عن هشام عن أبيه عن عائشة وأصحاب هشام الحفاظ رووه عنه عن أبيه عن جده الزبير وهو الصحيح
machine translationHishām b. ʿUrwah narrated it, and there is disagreement about it from him. Sulaymān b. Bilāl narrated it from Hishām, from his father, from ʿĀʾishah, while the reliable memorizers (ḥuffāẓ) among Hishām's students narrated it from him, from his father, from his grandfather al-Zubayr, and that is the correct (ṣaḥīḥ) version.
