أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ خَشْرَمٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ عِلَاقَةَ عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ شَرِيكٍ قَالَ
كُنَّا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ كَأَنَّ عَلَى رُءُوسِنَا الرَّخَمَ مَا يَتَكَلَّمُ مِنَّا مُتَكَلِّمٌ إِذْ جَاءَهُ نَاسٌ مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا أَفْتِنَا فِي كَذَا فقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ وَضَعَ عَنْكُمُ الْحَرَجَ إِلَّا امْرَأً اقْتَرَضَ مِنْ عِرْضِ أَخِيهِ فَذَاكَ الَّذِي حَرِجَ وَهَلَكَ» قَالُوا أَفَنَتَدَاوَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «نَعَمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يُنْزِلْ دَاءً إِلَّا أَنْزَلَ لَهُ دَوَاءً غَيْرَ دَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ» قَالُوا وَمَا هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ «الْهَرَمُ» قَالُوا فَأَيُّ النَّاسِ أَحَبُّ إِلَى اللَّهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ « أَحَبُّ النَّاسِ إِلَى اللَّهِ أَحْسَنُهُمْ خُلُقًا»

✧ We were with the Prophet ﷺ, as if on our heads were birds; none of us spoke when some people from the Bedouins came to him and said, “O Messenger of Allah, give us a ruling about such-and-such, give us a ruling about such-and-such.” He said, “O people, Allah has removed hardship from you, except a man who borrows from the honor of his brother; that is the one who is in hardship and has perished.” They said, “Shall we seek treatment, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Yes, for Allah has not sent down any disease except that He has sent down for it a cure, except one disease.” They said, “And what is it, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “Old age.” They said, “Which of the people is most beloved to Allah, O Messenger of Allah?” He said, “The most beloved of people to Allah is the best of them in character.”
