حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ: نَا اللَّيْثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ:
أَنَّ رَجُلًا لَمْ يَعْمَلْ خَيْرًا قَطُّ، وَكَانَ يُدَايِنُ النَّاسَ، كَانَ يَقُولُ لِرَسُولِهِ خُذْ مَا تَيَسَّرَ وَاتْرُكْ مَا تَعَسَّرَ، وَتَجَاوَزْ لَعَلَّ اللهَ يَتَجَاوَزُ عَنَّا. فَلَمَّا هَلَكَ قَالَ اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى: هَلْ عَمِلْتَ لِي خَيْرًا قَطُّ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ كَانَ لِي رَسُولٌ فَكُنْتُ أَقُولُ تَجَاوَزْ لَعَلَّ اللهَ يَتَجَاوَزُ عَنَّا. قَالَ: فَقَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْكَ

✧ A man never did any good at all, and he used to lend money to people. He would say to his servant: 'Take what is easy and leave what is difficult, and overlook, perhaps Allah will overlook us.' When he died, Allah—Blessed and Exalted—said: 'Did you ever do any good for Me?' He said: 'No, except that I had a servant and I used to say: Overlook, perhaps Allah will overlook us.' He said: 'Indeed I have overlooked you.'
