أَخْبَرَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ أَنْبَأَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ صَعْصَعَةَ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ
لَقِيتُ أَبَا ذَرٍّ وَهُوَ يَسُوقُ جَمَلًا لَهُ أَوْ يَقُودُهُ فِي عُنُقِهِ قِرْبَةٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَالُكَ قَالَ لِي عَمَلِي فَقُلْتُ مَالُكَ قَالَ لِي عَمَلِي قُلْتُ حَدِّثْنِي حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ أَنْفَقَ زَوْجَيْنِ مِنْ مَالٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا ابْتَدَرَتْهُ حَجَبَةُ الْجَنَّةِ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «هُوَ دِرْهَمَيْنِ أَوْ أَمَتَيْنِ أَوْ عَبْدَيْنِ أَوْ دَابَّتَيْنِ»

✧ I met Abu Dharr while he was driving a camel of his, or leading it, with a water-skin on his neck. I said, “O Abu Dharr, what is wrong with you?” He said, “My work is with me.” I said, “What is wrong with you?” He said, “My work is with me.” I said, “Narrate to me a hadith you heard from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.” He said, “I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘There is no Muslim who spends a pair from his wealth in the path of Allah except that the gatekeepers of Paradise rush to meet him.’” Abu Muhammad said: “It means two dirhams, or two slave women, or two slaves, or two riding animals.”
