قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ قَرْمٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، قَالَ:

ذَهَبْتُ مَعَ صَاحِبٍ لِي إِلَى سَلْمَانَ ؓ فَجَاءَ بِخُبْزٍ وَمِلْحٍ، فَقَالَ صَاحِبِي: لَوْ كَانَ فِي مِلْحِنَا سَعْتَرٌ، فَبَعَثَ سَلْمَانُ - ؓ – بِمِطْهَرَتِهِ، فَجَاءَ بِسَعْتَرٍ، فَلَمَّا أَكَلْنَا قَالَ صَاحِبِي: الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي قَنَّعَنَا بِمَا رَزَقَنَا. فَقَالَ سَلْمَانُ ؓ: لَوْ قَنِعْتَ لَمْ تَكُنْ مِطْهَرَتِي مَرْهُونَةً

✧ I went with a companion of mine to Salman ؓ. He brought bread and salt. My companion said: 'If only there were thyme in our salt.' So Salman ؓ sent his water-skin [as collateral] and brought thyme. When we had eaten, my companion said: 'Praise be to Allah who has made us content with what He has provided us.' Salman ؓ said: 'If you had been content, my water-skin would not have been pawned.'
