    ✧ "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade hoarding food." Muslim included the hadith of Muhammad ibn Ishaq from Muhammad ibn 'Amr ibn 'Ata' from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab from Ma'mar ibn 'Abd Allah ibn Nadlah that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "No one hoards except a sinner." This hadith is one of the things that refute the view that a Companion's hadith is not authentic unless two Followers narrate from him, for this Ma'mar has no narrator other than Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab. As for the hadith of al-Qasim from Abu Umamah, it is not with that wording. Reports have been narrated about the prohibition of hoarding food and refraining from helping Muslims in times of hardship, which must be mentioned in this place as Muslims are driven to it at the present time. Among them: Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in the Talkhis.

    ✧ Indeed Iblis despaired of idols being worshipped in the land of the Arabs, but he will be content with less than that from you through the minor sins of your deeds, which are the destructive ones. So beware of injustices as much as you can, for a servant will come on the Day of Resurrection with good deeds that he thinks will save him, and a servant will keep standing and saying: O Lord, so-and-so wronged me in some matter. It will be said: Remove from his good deeds until no good deed remains for him.

    ✧ I and my father went out seeking knowledge among this tribe of the Ansar before they perished. The first person we met was Abu al-Yasar, the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and with him was a servant of his. He was wearing a Ma'afiri cloak, and his servant also had a Ma'afiri cloak, and he had a bundle of scrolls. My father said to him: I see in your face a trace of anger. He said: Yes, I had money owed to me by so-and-so, the son of so-and-so, the Harami. I went to his family and said: Is he there? They said: No. Then his son came out, and I said to him: Where is your father? He said: He heard your voice and entered my mother's bedchamber. I said: Come out, for I know where you are. He came out to me and I said to him: What made you hide from me? He said: I, by Allah, will tell you and not lie to you. I feared, by Allah, that if I spoke to you I would lie to you, or if I promised you I would break my promise, and you are a companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. I said: By Allah, were you truly in hardship? I said: By Allah. He said: By Allah. I said: By Allah. He said: By Allah. Then he spread out the scroll and erased the debt, and said: If you find means to pay, then pay; otherwise you are released. I bear witness that these two eyes of mine saw — and he placed his two fingers on his eyes — and these two ears of mine heard — and he placed his two fingers in his ears — and my heart comprehended it — and he pointed to the artery of his heart — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: “Whoever grants respite to a debtor in difficulty and waives for him, Allah will shade him in His shade.”

He said, "By Allah, I have no payment and I cannot find anyone to bear it on my behalf." He said, "So he dragged him to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, 'O Messenger of Allah, this is my debtor.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, 'Will you grant him a delay of only one month?' He said, 'No.' He said, 'Then I will bear it on your behalf.' So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ bore it on his behalf. The man went and brought the amount he had promised. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, 'Where did you obtain this gold?' He said, 'From a mine.'

     ✧ The pledge is milked and ridden. Al-A'mash said: I mentioned that to Ibrahim, and he disliked benefiting from any of it. "This is an authentic chain according to the condition of the two Shaykhs," but they did not record it due to the consensus of al-Thawri and Shu'ba on its being mawquf from al-A'mash. I, according to my principle, which I established regarding accepting additions from a trustworthy narrator, [accept it] according to the condition of al-Bukhari and Muslim.

But if you found it in a ruin of the pre-Islamic era or in an uninhabited village or on an unfrequented road, then in it and in the buried treasure (rikāz) the fifth is due.” I have presented many arguments in this book for authenticating the narrations of ʿAmr b. Shuʿayb when the narrator from him is trustworthy; and none is reported from him better than these narrations. I had been seeking clear evidence for Shuʿayb b. Muḥammad’s hearing from ʿAbd Allāh b. ʿAmr, but I have not obtained it until now. Sahih.

     ✧ A man came to Abdullah b. Amr, asking him about a muhrim who had intercourse with his wife. He pointed to Abdullah b. Umar and said, “Go to that one and ask him.” Shuayb said: The man did not recognize him, so I went with him, and he asked Ibn Umar. He said, “Your Hajj is invalid.” The man said, “So what should I do?” He said, “Enter ihram with the people, do what they do, and when you reach the coming year, perform Hajj and offer a sacrificial animal.” He then returned to Abdullah b. Amr while I was with him, and he said, “Go to Ibn Abbas and ask him.” Shuayb said: So I went with him to Ibn Abbas, and he asked him, and he said to him the same as Ibn Umar had said. He returned to Abdullah b. Amr while I was with him and informed him of what Ibn Abbas had said. Then he said, “What do you say?” He replied, “My view is like what the two of them said.” This is a hadith of trustworthy narrators; its transmitters are memorizers. It is as if it takes one by the hand in establishing the soundness of Shuayb b. Muhammad’s hearing from his grandfather Abdullah b. Amr. This is the end of what my independent effort has led me to add in the Book of Sale beyond what the two imams, Abu Abdullah al-Bukhari and Abu al-Husayn al-Qushayri, compiled. Within this book I have mentioned books for which al-Bukhari set chapter headings at the end of the Book of Sales, among them: the Book of Salam, the Book of Pre-emption, the Book of Leasing, the Book of Transfer of Debt, the Book of Cultivation, the Book of Sharecropping, the Book of Irrigation Partnerships, the Book of Grants, the Book of Gifts, the Book of Qirad, the Book of Lost Property, the Book of Wrongs, the Book of Refraining from Begging, the Book of Pledge, the Book of Partnership, the Book of Manumission, the Book of the Mukatab, the Book of Testimonies, the Book of Settlement, the Book of Conditions, the Book of Bequests, and the Book of Endowment. I have only explained them at the end of this book so that no one might suppose that I left the Book of Sales devoid of these books. Allah is the Helper in what I establish through tracing the reports of the two imams, and He is sufficient for me and the best disposer of affairs.

     سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ يَقُولُ بَعَثَ إِلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ عَلَيَّ ثِيَابِي وَسِلَاحِي ثُمَّ آتِيَهُ قَالَ فَفَعَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَصَعَّدَ فِيَّ الْبَصَرَ ثُمَّ طَأْطَأَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَا عَمْرُو إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَنْ أَبْعَثَكَ عَلَى جَيْشٍ فَيُغْنِمُكَ اللَّهُ وَيُسَلِّمُكَ وَأَرْغَبُ لَكَ رَغْبَةً صَالِحَةً مِنَ الْمَالِ» قَالَ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَمْ أُسْلِمْ رَغْبَةً فِي الْمَالِ وَلَكِنِّي أَسْلَمْتُ رَغْبَةً فِي الْإِسْلَامِ وَأَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «يَا عَمْرُو نَعِمَّا بِالْمَالِ الصَّالِحِ لِلرَّجُلِ الصَّالِحِ»

     ✧ I heard 'Amr b. al-'As say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent for me, so I came to him and he ordered me to put on my clothes and take my weapons and then come to him. He said: So I did that, then I came to him while he was performing ablution. He looked up at me, then lowered his gaze, then said, "O 'Amr, I intend to send you on a military expedition; may Allah grant you spoils and keep you safe, and I desire for you a sound desire for wealth." He said: So I said, "O Messenger of Allah, I did not embrace Islam out of desire for wealth; rather I embraced Islam out of desire for Islam and to be with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." Then he said, "O 'Amr, how excellent is sound wealth for a righteous man."

239. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 2131Sahih

     أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَعَلَيْهِ أَثَرُ غُسْلٍ وَهُوَ طَيِّبُ النَّفْسِ قَالَ فَظَنَنَّا أَنَّهُ أَلَمَّ بِأَهْلِهِ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَرَاكَ أَصْبَحْتَ طَيِّبَ النَّفْسِ قَالَ «أَجَلْ وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ» قَالَ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ الْغِنَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا بَأْسَ بِالْغِنَى لِمَنِ اتَّقَى وَالصِّحَّةُ لِمَنِ اتَّقَى خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْغِنَى وَطِيبُ النَّفْسِ مِنَ النَّعِيمِ»

     ✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came out to them with the traces of a bath on him, and he was in good spirits. He said: So we thought he had been intimate with his wife, so we said, "O Messenger of Allah, we see you have arisen in good spirits." He said, "Yes, and praise be to Allah." Then he mentioned wealth, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no harm in wealth for one who fears Allah, and health for one who fears Allah is better than wealth, and cheerfulness of spirit is part of bliss."

     أَنَّ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ أَغَارَ بِفَرَسَيْنِ يَوْمَ خَيْبَرَ فَأُصِيبَا فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ أُصِيبَ فَرَسَايَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَأَعْطَاهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَزَادَهُ فَزَادَهُ ثُمَّ اسْتَزَادَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَا حَكِيمُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ وَمَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ أَعْطُوهُ وَالسَّائِلُ مِنْهَا كَالْآكِلِ وَلَا يَشْبَعُ»

     ✧ Hakim b. Hizam carried out a raid with two horses on the day of Khaybar, and they were both wounded. So he came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "My two horses have been wounded, O Messenger of Allah." So he gave him something, then he asked for more and he gave him more, then he asked for more. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Hakim, this wealth is green and sweet. Whoever asks people, they give him, and the one who asks from it is like one who eats but never becomes full."

     «إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَنْ يَمُوتَ حَتَّى يَسْتَكْمِلَ رِزْقَهُ فَلَا تَسْتَبْطِئُوا الرِّزْقَ وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَأَجْمِلُوا فِي الطَّلَبِ خُذُوا مَا حَلَّ وَدَعُوا مَا حُرِّمَ»

     ✧ "Indeed, one of you will not die until he completes his provision, so do not think provision is slow. Fear Allah, O people, and be moderate in seeking. Take what is lawful and leave what is forbidden."

     «لَيْسَ مِنْ عَمَلٍ يُقَرِّبُ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ إِلَّا قَدْ أَمَرْتُكُمْ بِهِ وَلَا عَمَلٌ يُقَرِّبُ إِلَى النَّارِ إِلَّا قَدْ نَهَيْتُكُمْ عَنْهُ لَا يَسْتَبْطِئَنَّ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ رِزْقَهُ أَنَّ جِبْرِيلَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ أَلْقَى فِي رُوعِيَ أَنَّ أَحَدًا مِنْكُمْ لَنْ يَخْرُجَ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَسْتَكْمِلَ رِزْقَهُ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ وَأَجْمِلُوا فِي الطَّلَبِ فَإِنِ اسْتَبْطَأَ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ رِزْقَهُ فَلَا يَطْلُبْهُ بِمَعْصِيَةِ اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يُنَالُ فَضْلُهُ بِمَعْصِيَةٍ»

     ✧ "There is no deed that draws nearer to Paradise except that I have commanded you to do it, and no deed that draws nearer to the Fire except that I have forbidden you from it. Let none of you think his provision is slow, for Jibril ﷺ cast into my heart that none of you will depart this world until he completes his provision. So fear Allah, O people, and be moderate in seeking. If any of you thinks his provision is slow, let him not seek it through disobedience to Allah, for Allah's bounty is not obtained through disobedience."

     لَا يُغْبَطَنَّ جَامِعُ الْمَالِ مِنْ غَيْرِ حِلِّهِ أَوْ قَالَ مِنْ غَيْرِ حَقِّهِ فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ تَصَدَّقَ لَمْ يُقْبَلْ مِنْهُ وَمَا بَقِيَ كَانَ زَادَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ

     ✧ Let not the one who amasses wealth without its right be envied—or he said, without its due—for if he gives charity, it will not be accepted from him, and whatever remains will be his provision for the Fire.

246. al-Mustadrak (al-Hakim) 2138Sahih

     كُنَّا قَوْمًا نُسَمِّي السَّمَاسِرَةَ وَكُنَّا نَبِيعُ بِالْبَقِيعِ فَأَتَانَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَسَمَّانَا بِأَحْسَنَ مِنِ اسْمِنَا فَقَالَ «يَا مَعْشَرَ التُّجَّارِ إِنَّ هَذَا الْبَيْعَ يَحْضُرُهُ الْكَذِبُ وَالْيَمِينُ فَشُوبُوهُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ»

     ✧ We were a people who called ourselves brokers, and we used to sell in al-Baqi'. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us and called us by a name better than our own name, saying, "O company of merchants, this selling is attended by lying and oaths, so mix it with charity."
