أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ بْنِ وَرْدَانَ بِمِصْرَ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ عَنِ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ
«مَثَلُ الْمُنْفِقِ وَالْبَخِيلِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا جَنَّتَانِ مِنْ لَدُنْ تَرَاقِيهِمَا إِلَى ثَدْيَيْهِمَا فَأَمَّا الْمُنْفِقُ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُنْفِقَ مَادَتْ عَلَيْهِ وَاتَّسَعَتْ حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ قَدَمَيْهِ وَتَعْفُوَ أَثَرَهُ وَأَمَّا الْبَخِيلُ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُنْفِقَ أَخَذَتْ كُلُّ حَلْقَةٍ مَوْضِعَهَا وَلَزِمَتْ فَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُوَسِّعَهَا وَلَا تَتَّسِعُ فَهُوَ يُرِيدُ أَنْ يُوَسِّعَهَا وَلَا تَتَّسِعُ»

✧ The example of the one who spends and the miser is like two men who have two coats of mail from their collarbones to their chests. As for the one who spends, when he wants to spend, it expands and widens over him until it reaches his feet and covers his traces. As for the miser, when he wants to spend, each ring takes its place and clings, so he tries to widen it but it does not widen; he tries to widen it but it does not widen.
