حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ قَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسٍ قَالَ نَزَلَ عَلَيْنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ بِالْكُوفَةِ قَالَ فَكَانَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ مَوْلَانَا قَرَابَةٌ قَالَ
نَزَلَ عَلَيْنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ بِالْكُوفَةِ قَالَ: وَكَانَ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ مَوْلَانَا قَرَابَةٌ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: وَهُمْ مَوَالِيَ لِأَحْمَسَ. فَاجْتَمَعَتْ أَحْمَسُ. قَالَ قَيْسٌ: فَأَتَيْنَاهُ نُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ، وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ مَرَّةً: فَأَتَاهُ الْحَيُّ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبِي: يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، هَؤُلَاءِ أَنْسِبَاؤُكَ أَتَوْكَ يُسَلِّمُونَ عَلَيْكَ، وَتُحَدِّثُهُمْ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ. قَالَ: مَرْحَبًا بِهِمْ وَأَهْلًا، صَحِبْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَ سِنِينَ، لَمْ أَكُنْ أَحْرَصَ عَلَى أَنْ أَعِيَ الْحَدِيثَ مِنِّي فِيهِنَّ، حَتَّى سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: وَاللهِ لَأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ حَبْلًا فَيَحْتَطِبَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ، فَيَأْكُلَ وَيَتَصَدَّقَ، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا أَغْنَاهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ فَيَسْأَلَهُ، أَعْطَاهُ أَوْ مَنَعَهُ.

- Fakān Baynah and Bayn Mawlānā Qarābah
✧ Abu Hurayrah stayed with us in al-Kufah. He said: And between him and our mawla there was kinship. Sufyan said: They are mawali of Ahmas. So Ahmas gathered. Qays said: We came to him to greet him, and Sufyan once said: The tribe came to him. My father said to him: O Abu Hurayrah, these are your kinsfolk; they have come to greet you, and you should narrate to them from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He said: Welcome to them and greetings. I accompanied the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for three years, during which I was not more eager to memorize hadith than I was in those years, until I heard him say: By Allah, for one of you to take a rope and gather firewood on his back, then eat from it and give charity, is better for him than to come to a man whom Allah, Mighty and Majestic, has enriched from His bounty and ask him, whether he gives him or refuses him.
