حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ قَالَ
كَانَتْ لِمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِي كَرِبَ جَارِيَةٌ تَبِيعُ اللَّبَنَ، وَيَقْبِضُ الْمِقْدَامُ الثَّمَنَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ، أَتَبِيعُ اللَّبَنَ وَتَقْبِضُ الثَّمَنَ ! فَقَالَ: نَعَمْ، وَمَا بَأْسٌ بِذَلِكَ، سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: لَيَأْتِيَنَّ عَلَى النَّاسِ زَمَانٌ لَا يَنْفَعُ فِيهِ إِلَّا الدِّينَارُ وَالدِّرْهَمُ

✧ Al-Miqdam b. Ma'di Karib had a slave girl who used to sell milk, and al-Miqdam received the price. It was said to him, 'Glory be to God! You sell the milk and take the price?' He said, 'Yes, and there is no harm in that. I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: There will come upon people a time when nothing will be of benefit except the dinar and the dirham.'
