Musnad Ahmad 1517

Translation

✧ I had a need from Abu Sa'd, and Umar ibn Sa'd had a need from his father, so before stating his need he put forward some talk of the sort people use to curry favor, something he had not been accustomed to hear from him. When he finished, he said, "My son, have you finished your talk?" He said, "Yes." He said, "Never have you been farther from getting your need, and never have I been more disinterested in you than since I heard this talk of yours. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: \"There will be people who eat with their tongues just as cattle eat from the ground.\""
