- قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، ثَنَا هَمَّامُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ وَسَّاجٍ، قَالَ:

كَانَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ جَالِسًا مَعَ كَعْبٍ ؓ، [فَقَالَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ ]: بِئْسَ الثَّوْبُ ثَوْبُ الْخُيَلَاءِ. فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ ؓ: أَسَمِعْتَهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ؟ قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: إِنِّي لَا أَرُدُّ عَلَيْكَ عِلْمَكَ إِنِّي لَأَجِدُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ: مَنْ لَبِسَ ثَوْبَ خُيَلَاءَ لَمْ يَنْظُرِ اللهُ إِلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَضَعَهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ كَبُرَ. فَقَالَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ ؓ: " بِئْسَ الْقَلْبُ قَلْبُ السَّمِينِ، فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ ؓ: أَسَمِعْتَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا. قَالَ كَعْبٌ ؓ: إِنِّي لَا أَرُدُّ عَلَيْكَ عِلْمَكَ. إِنِّي أَجِدُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ تَعَالَى: مَثَلُ السَّمِينِ وَقَلْبِ الْمَهْزُولِ كَمَثَلِ شَاةٍ سَمِينَةٍ وَشَاةٍ مَهْزُولَةٍ أَصَابَهُمَا الْمَطَرُ فَخَلَصَ إِلَى قَلْبِ الْمَهْزُولَةِ، وَلَمْ يَخْلُصْ إِلَى قَلْبِ السَّمِينَةِ. فَقَالَ أَبُو لُبَابَةَ ؓ: [مَنْ يَعْبُدُ اللهَ] كَفَاهُ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الْمُؤْنَةَ، فَقَالَ كَعْبٌ ؓ: أَسَمِعْتَهُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ؟ فَقَالَ: لَا. فَقَالَ: إِنِّي لَا أَرُدُّ عَلَيْكَ عِلْمَكَ، وَإِنِّي لَأَجِدُ فِي كِتَابِ اللهِ تَعَالَى: مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ يَعْبُدُ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَّا ضَمِنَ اللهُ تَعَالَى السَّمَاءَ وَالْأَرْضَ بِرِزْقِهِ حَتَّى يَمُوتَ أَوْ [مَا] عَاشَ ".

✧ Abu Lubabah was sitting with Ka'b ؓ, [and Abu Lubabah said]: 'How bad is the garment of pride.' Ka'b ؓ said: 'Did you hear it from the Prophet ﷺ?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'I do not reject your knowledge. I find in the Book of Allah: Whoever wears a garment of pride, Allah will not look at him until he takes it off, even if it is precious.' Then Abu Lubabah ؓ said: 'How bad is the heart of the fat one.' Ka'b ؓ said: 'Did you hear it from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ?' He said: 'No.' Ka'b ؓ said: 'I do not reject your knowledge. I find in the Book of Allah, exalted is He: The example of the fat one and the heart of the emaciated one is like that of a fat sheep and an emaciated sheep upon which rain fell, and it reached the heart of the emaciated one but did not reach the heart of the fat one.' Then Abu Lubabah ؓ said: '[Whoever worships Allah], Allah, mighty and majestic is He, will suffice him in his needs.' Ka'b ؓ said: 'Did you hear it from the Prophet ﷺ?' He said: 'No.' He said: 'I do not reject your knowledge. I find in the Book of Allah, exalted is He: There is no servant who worships Allah, mighty and majestic is He, except that Allah, exalted is He, guarantees the heaven and the earth for his provision until he dies or [as long as] he lives.'"
