أَخْبَرَنَا عَاصِمُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ جُلُوسٌ فَقَالَ «أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَيْرِ النَّاسِ مَنْزِلَةً؟» قُلْنَا بَلَى قَالَ رَجُلٌ مُمْسِكٌ بِرَأْسِ فَرَسِهِ أَوْ قَالَ فَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ أَوْ يُقْتَلَ قَالَ فَأُخْبِرُكُمْ بِالَّذِي يَلِيهِ فَقُلْنَا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «امْرُؤٌ مُعْتَزِلٌ فِي شِعْبٍ يُقِيمُ الصَّلَاةَ وَيُؤْتِي الزَّكَاةَ وَيَعْتَزِلُ شُرُورَ النَّاسِ» قَالَ «فَأُخْبِرُكُمْ بِشَرِّ النَّاسِ مَنْزِلَةً؟» فَقُلْنَا نَعَمْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «الَّذِي يُسْأَلُ بِاللَّهِ الْعَظِيمِ وَلَا يُعْطِي بِهِ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ came out to them while they were sitting and said: “Shall I tell you about the best of people in rank?” We said: “Yes.” He said: “A man holding the head of his horse — or he said: a horse — in the path of Allah until he dies or is killed.” Then he said: “Shall I tell you about the one who comes after him?” We said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “A man withdrawing into a mountain pass, establishing prayer, giving zakah, and keeping away from people’s evils.” Then he said: “Shall I tell you about the worst of people in rank?” We said: “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “The one who is asked by Allah, the Almighty, and does not give by Him.”
