Show the chain

حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى بْنُ أَسَدٍ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ بْنِ الْعَوَّامِ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ

لأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَحْبُلاً فَيَأْخُذَ حُزْمَةً مِنْ حَطَبٍ فَيَبِيعَ فَيَكُفَّ اللَّهُ بِهِ وَجْهَهُ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ أُعْطِيَ أَمْ مُنِعَ
