أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، ثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ الْعَدْلُ، ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ نَصْرٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، ثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ يَقُولُ:
أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمًا أَنْ نَتَصَدَّقَ، فَوَافَقَ ذَلِكَ مَالًا عِنْدِي، فَقُلْتُ: الْيَوْمَ أَسْبِقُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ، إِنْ سَبَقْتُهُ يَوْمًا، فَجِئْتُ بِنِصْفِ مَالِي، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: مَا أَبْقَيْتَ لِأَهْلِكَ. فَقُلْتُ: مِثْلَهُ، قَالَ: فَأَتَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ بِكُلِّ مَا عِنْدَهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - ﷺ: " مَا أَبْقَيْتَ لِأَهْلِكَ "، فَقَالَ: أَبْقَيْتُ لَهُمُ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، فَقُلْتُ: لَا أُسَابِقُكَ إِلَى شَيْءٍ أَبَدًا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us one day to give charity, and that coincided with my having some wealth. So I said: "Today I will outdo Abū Bakr, if I am ever to outdo him on any day." So I brought half of my wealth, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "What have you left for your family?" I said: "The same amount." He said: Then Abū Bakr came with everything he had, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "What have you left for your family?" He said: "I have left for them Allah and His Messenger." So I said: "I will never compete with you in anything."
