حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ عَنْ أَبِي وَهْبٍ مَوْلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ الْبَرِيَّةِ قَالُوا: بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ: رَجُلٌ آخِذٌ بِعِنَانِ فَرَسِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ]، كُلَّمَا كَانَتْ هَيْعَةٌ اسْتَوَى عَلَيْهِ، أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِالَّذِي يَلِيهِ قَالُوا: بَلَى قَالَ: رَجُلٌ فِي ثَلَّةٍ مِنْ غَنَمِهِ يُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ، أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِشَرِّ الْبَرِيَّةِ قَالُوا: بَلَى قَالَ: الَّذِي يُسْأَلُ بِاللهِ وَلَا يُعْطِي بِهِ.

He said, 'A man who takes the reins of his horse in the path of Allah [Mighty and Majestic]; whenever there is an alarm, he mounts it. Shall I inform you of the one who comes next?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'A man with a small flock of sheep who establishes prayer and gives zakah. Shall I inform you of the worst of creation?' They said, 'Yes.' He said, 'The one who is asked by Allah but does not give by it.'
