حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْكِنْدِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنْ أَشْعَثَ بْنِ سَوَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ السَّعْدِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ لِي عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ إِنَّا نَبْعَثُكَ عَلَى أَمْرٍ مِنْ أُمُورِ النَّاسِ، وَإِنَّكَ لَا تَقْبَلُ الْعُمَالَةَ، فَمَا يَحْمِلُكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ ؟ قُلْتُ: إِنَّ لِي بِهَا عَنْهَا غِنًى. قَالَ: فَلَا تَفْعَلْ، خُذْهَا، فَإِنِّي أَرَدْتُ مَا أَرَدْتَ
وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يُعْطِينِي الشَّيْءَ، فَأَقُولُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَعْطِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي، فَأَعْطَانِي مَرَّةً مَالًا، فَقُلْتُ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، وَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ لَا آخُذَهُ فَقَالَ: خُذْهُ، فَتَمَوَّلْهُ، أَوْ تَصَدَّقْ بِهِ، فَإِذَا آتَاكَ اللهُ مَالًا وَأَنْتَ غَيْرُ سَائِلِهِ فَخُذْهُ، وَمَا صُرِفَ عَنْكَ فَلَا تُتْبِعْهُ نَفْسَكَ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to give me something, and I would say, 'O Messenger of Allah, give it to someone more needy than I.' Once he gave me some wealth, and I said the same thing, intending not to take it. He said, 'Take it, and keep it as wealth or give it in charity. If Allah gives you wealth without your asking for it, take it. And whatever is turned away from you, do not pursue it yourself.'
