قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحْرِزُ بْنُ عَوْنٍ، ثَنَا خَلَفُ بْنُ خَلِيفَةَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ؓ قَالَ:

لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُقْرِضُ اللهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا.. الْآيَةَ، قَالَ أَبُو الدَّحْدَاحِ ؓ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى يُرِيدُ مِنَّا الْقَرْضَ ؟ قَالَ ﷺ: نَعَمْ يَا أَبَا الدَّحْدَاحِ. قَالَ: أَرِنِي يَدَكَ، فَنَاوَلَهُ ﷺ يَدَهُ، قَالَ: قَدْ أَقْرَضْتُ رَبِّي حَائِطِي، وَحَائِطُهُ فِيهِ سِتُّمِائَةِ نَخْلَةٍ، فَجَاءَ ؓ يَمْشِي حَتَّى أَتَى الْحَائِطَ، وَأُمُّ الدَّحْدَاحِ فِيهِ وَعِيَالُهَا، فَنَادَى: يَا أُمَّ الدَّحْدَاحِ، قَالَتْ: لَبَّيْكَ. قَالَ: اخْرُجِي، فَقَدْ أَقْرَضْتُ رَبِّي

✧ When the verse “Who is it that will lend God a goodly loan...” was revealed, Abu al-Dahdah ؓ said: “O Messenger of God, does God Almighty desire a loan from us?” He ﷺ said: “Yes, O Abu al-Dahdah.” He said: “Show me your hand.” He ﷺ extended his hand to him, and he said: “I have lent my Lord my garden”—his garden contained six hundred palm trees. Then he ؓ came walking until he reached the garden, where Umm al-Dahdah and his family were, and he called out: “O Umm al-Dahdah!” She said: “At your service.” He said: “Leave, for I have lent my Lord.”
