حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْحَارِثِ سُرَيْجُ بْنُ يُونُسَ، ثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُجَالِدٍ، عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ؓ، قَالَ:
جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، فَقَالَ: ثِيَابُنَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ نَنْسِجُهَا بِأَيْدِينَا ؟ فَضَحِكَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ: لِمَ تَضْحَكُونَ مِنْ جَاهِلٍ يَسْأَلُ عَالِمًا ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: صَدَقْتَ يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ، وَلَكِنَّهَا ثَمَرَاتٌ

✧ A Bedouin came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Our clothes in Paradise—will we weave them with our hands? The companions of the Messenger of God ﷺ laughed. The Bedouin said: Why do you laugh at an ignorant man asking a learned one? The Prophet ﷺ said: You have spoken the truth, O Bedouin, but they are fruits.
