حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ قَالَ

لَمَّا أُنْزِلَتِ وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ وَلا يُنْفِقُونَهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ. قَالَ: كُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فِي بَعْضِ أَسْفَارِهِ، فَقَالَ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِهِ: قَدْ نَزَلَ فِي الذَّهَبِ وَالْفِضَّةِ مَا نَزَلَ، فَلَوْ أَنَّا عَلِمْنَا: أَيُّ الْمَالِ خَيْرٌ اتَّخَذْنَاهُ، فَقَالَ: أَفْضَلُهُ لِسَانًا ذَاكِرًا، وَقَلْبًا شَاكِرًا، وَزَوْجَةً مُؤْمِنَةً تُعِينُهُ عَلَى إِيمَانِهِ

✧ When the verse 'Those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend them in the way of God' was revealed, we were with the Messenger of God ﷺ on one of his journeys. Some of his companions said: What has been revealed about gold and silver has been revealed; if only we knew which wealth is best so we could acquire it. He said: The best of it is a tongue that remembers God, a heart that is grateful, and a believing wife who helps him in his faith.
