أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو يَعْلَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَشْهَبِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خُلَيْدٌ الْعَصَرِيُّ عَنِ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ قَالَ
كُنْتُ فِي نَفَرٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَمَرَّ أَبُو ذَرٍّ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ «بَشِّرِ الْكَنَّازِينَ فِي ظُهُورِهِمْ بِكَيٍّ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ جُنُوبِهِمْ وَبِكَيٍّ مِنْ قِبَلِ قَفَاهِمْ يَخْرُجُ مِنْ جِبَاهِهِمْ ثُمَّ تَنَحَّى فَقَعَدَ» فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هَذَا؟ قَالُوا أَبُو ذَرٍّ فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ مَا شَيْءٌ سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُهُ قُبَيْلُ؟ قَالَ مَا قُلْتُ إِلَّا شَيْئًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ نَبِيِّهِمْ ﷺ قَالَ قُلْتُ فَمَا تَقُولُ فِي هَذَا الْعَطَاءِ قَالَ خُذْهُ فَإِنَّ فِيهِ الْيَوْمَ مَعُونَةً فَإِذَا كَانَ ثَمَنًا لِدِينِكَ فَدَعْهُ

✧ I was among a group of Quraysh when Abu Dharr passed by saying, 'Give glad tidings to the hoarders of wealth of a branding on their backs that will come out from their sides, and a branding from the back of their necks that will come out from their foreheads.' Then he stepped aside and sat down. I asked, 'Who is this?' They said, 'Abu Dharr.' I went to him and said, 'What is this that I heard you saying a little while ago?' He said, 'I did not say anything except something I heard from their Prophet ﷺ.' I said, 'What do you say about this allowance?' He said, 'Take it, for today it is a means of support. But if it becomes a price for your religion, then leave it.'
