حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا الْجُرَيْرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي نَضْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ يُقَالُ لَهُ: أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ، دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ أَصْحَابُهُ يَعُودُونَهُ وَهُوَ يَبْكِي، فَقَالُوا لَهُ: مَا يُبْكِيكَ؟ أَلَمْ يَقُلْ لَكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ: « خُذْ مِنْ شَارِبِكَ، ثُمَّ أَقِرَّهُ حَتَّى تَلْقَانِي » ؟ قَالَ: بَلَى، وَلَكِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ: « إِنَّ اللهَ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] قَبَضَ بِيَمِينِهِ قَبْضَةً، وَأُخْرَى بِالْيَدِ الْأُخْرَى، وَقَالَ: هَذِهِ لِهَذِهِ، وَهَذِهِ لِهَذِهِ وَلَا أُبَالِي » فَلَا أَدْرِي فِي أَيِّ الْقَبْضَتَيْنِ أَنَا.

✧ A man among the companions of the Prophet ﷺ called Abu 'Abd Allah was visited by his companions while he was weeping. They said to him: What makes you weep? Did not the Messenger of God ﷺ say to you: "Trim your moustache, then keep it until you meet me"? He said: Yes, but I heard the Messenger of God ﷺ say: "God [Mighty and Majestic] grasped a handful with His right hand and another with the other hand, and said: This is for this and this is for this, and I do not care." So I do not know in which of the two handfuls I am.
