حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ مُزَيْنَةَ أَنَّهُ
قَالَتْ لَهُ أُمُّهُ: أَلَا تَنْطَلِقُ فَتَسْأَلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَمَا يَسْأَلُهُ النَّاسُ، فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَسْأَلُهُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ قَائِمًا يَخْطُبُ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: مَنِ اسْتَعَفَّ أَعَفَّهُ اللهُ، وَمَنِ اسْتَغْنَى أَغْنَاهُ اللهُ، وَمَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ وَلَهُ عِدْلُ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ فَقَدْ سَأَلَ إِلْحَافًا، فَقُلْتُ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَ نَفْسِي: لَنَاقَةٌ لَهُ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ، وَلِغُلَامِهِ نَاقَةٌ أُخْرَى هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ، فَرَجَعْتُ وَلَمْ أَسْأَلْهُ

✧ His mother said to him, 'Will you not go and ask the Messenger of God ﷺ as the people ask him?' So I went to ask him and found him standing, delivering a sermon, saying: 'Whoever seeks chastity, God makes him chaste; whoever seeks self-sufficiency, God makes him self-sufficient; and whoever begs from people while having the equivalent of five ounces has begged importunately.' I said to myself: He has a she-camel that is better than five ounces, and his slave has another she-camel that is better than five ounces. So I returned and did not ask him.
