وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ قَزَعَةَ قَالَ: نَا حُصَيْنُ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: نَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ حُسَيْنٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
لَأَنْ يَحْتَزِمَ أَحَدُكُمْ حُزْمَةً مِنْ حَطَبٍ فَيَجْعَلَهَا عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ ; خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ يَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا فَيَسْأَلَهُ أَعْطَاهُ أَوْ مَنَعَهُ
