حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الزُّهْرِيُّ، قَالَ[: ] أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي حُمَيْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ اسْتَعْمَلَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَزْدِ يُقَالُ لَهُ: ابْنُ الْأُتْبِيَّةِ عَلَى صَدَقَةٍ، فَلَمَّا جَاءَ قَالَ: هَذَا لَكُمْ، وَهَذَا أُهْدِيَ لِي، فَخَطَبَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ النَّاسَ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: مَا بَالُ الْعَامِلِ نَبْعَثُهُ فَيَجِيءُ فَيَقُولُ: هَذَا لَكُمْ، وَهَذَا أُهْدِيَ لِي، فَهَلَّا جَلَسَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ وَبَيْتِ أُمِّهِ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ هَلْ تَأْتِيهِ هَدِيَّةٌ أَمْ لَا، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَا يَأْتِي أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ إِلَّا طِيفَ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ بَعِيرًا لَهُ رُغَاءٌ، أَوْ بَقَرَةً لَهَا خُوَارٌ، أَوْ ثَوْرًا لَهُ ثُوَاجٌ - وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: تَيْعَرُ - " قَالَ: ثُمَّ رَفَعَ يَدَيْهِ حَتَّى رَأَيْنَا عُفْرَتَيْ إِبْطَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " اللَّهُمَّ هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ " ثَلَاثًا

✧ The Messenger of God ﷺ appointed a man from al-Azd called Ibn al-Utbiyya over zakat. When he came, he said: This is for you, and this was gifted to me. The Messenger of God ﷺ addressed the people, praised and extolled God, then said: "What is the matter with an agent we send, and he comes and says: This is for you, and this was gifted to me? Would that he sat in his father's house and his mother's house, and see whether a gift comes to him or not. By the One in whose hand is Muhammad's soul, none of you comes with anything but he will be paraded with it on the Day of Resurrection, carrying it on his neck—if it is a camel, it has a grumble; or a cow, it has a moo; or a bull, it bellows—and perhaps he said: it bleats." He said: Then he raised his hands until we saw the whiteness of his armpits, then said: "O God, have I conveyed?" three times.
