حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حِسْبَةَ مُسْلِمُ بْنُ أُكَيْسٍ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ بْنِ الْجَرَّاحِ قَالَ
ذَكَرَ مَنْ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ، فَوَجَدَهُ يَبْكِي، فَقَالَ: مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ؟ فَقَالَ: نَبْكِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ذَكَرَ يَوْمًا مَا يَفْتَحُ اللهُ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ، وَيُفِيءُ عَلَيْهِمْ حَتَّى ذَكَرَ الشَّامَ، فَقَالَ: إِنْ يُنْسَأْ فِي أَجَلِكَ يَا أَبَا عُبَيْدَةَ، فَحَسْبُكَ مِنَ الْخَدَمِ ثَلَاثَةٌ: خَادِمٌ يَخْدُمُكَ، وَخَادِمٌ يُسَافِرُ مَعَكَ، وَخَادِمٌ يَخْدُمُ أَهْلَكَ، وَيَرُدُّ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَحَسْبُكَ مِنَ الدَّوَابِّ ثَلَاثَةٌ: دَابَّةٌ لِرِجْلِكَ، وَدَابَّةٌ لِثَقَلِكَ، وَدَابَّةٌ لِغُلَامِكَ، ثُمَّ هَذَا أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَى بَيْتِي قَدِ امْتَلَأَ رَقِيقًا، وَأَنْظُرُ إِلَى مِرْبَطِي قَدِ امْتَلَأَ دَوَابَّ وَخَيْلًا، فَكَيْفَ أَلْقَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ هَذَا؟ وَقَدْ أَوْصَانَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: إِنَّ أَحَبَّكُمْ إِلَيَّ، وَأَقْرَبَكُمْ مِنِّي مَنْ لَقِيَنِي عَلَى مِثْلِ الْحَالِ الَّذِي فَارَقَنِي عَلَيْهَا

✧ He mentioned someone who visited Abu Ubaydah and found him weeping. The man said, 'What makes you weep, O Abu Ubaydah?' He said, 'We weep because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ one day mentioned what Allah would open for the Muslims and grant them, until he mentioned Syria. He said, "If your life is prolonged, O Abu Ubaydah, it is enough for you of servants to have three: a servant to serve you, a servant to travel with you, and a servant to serve your family and look after them. And it is enough for you of mounts to have three: a mount for riding, a mount for your baggage, and a mount for your servant.' Then here I am looking at my house filled with slaves, and looking at my stable filled with mounts and horses. So how shall I meet the Messenger of Allah ﷺ after this? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ advised us, 'The most beloved of you to me and the closest of you to me is the one who meets me in the same state as that in which he left me.'
