حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْحُلْوَانِيُّ قَالَ: نَا الْفَيْضُ بْنُ وَثِيقٍ الثَّقَفِيُّ قَالَ: نَا الْمُنْذِرُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ الطَّائِيُّ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ. عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ قَالَ:
حَضَرْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ، أَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ إِنَّ هَذَا يُرِيدُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مَالِي كُلَّهُ فَيَجْتَاحُهُ، فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: مَا تَقُولُ ؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ. فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: إِنَّمَا لَكَ مِنْ مَالِهِ مَا يَكْفِيكَ، فَقَالَ: يَا خَلِيفَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ، أَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ، أَنْتَ وَمَالُكَ لِأَبِيكَ ؟ " فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: ارْضَ بِمَا رَضِيَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ

✧ I attended Abu Bakr al-Siddiq. A man came to him and said: "O caliph of the Messenger of God, this man wants to take all my wealth and ruin me." Abu Bakr said to him: "What do you say?" He said: "Yes." Abu Bakr said: "You only have of his wealth what suffices you." He said: "O caliph of the Messenger of God, did not the Messenger of God ﷺ say: 'You and your wealth belong to your father'?" Abu Bakr said: "Be content with what God, Mighty and Majestic, has been content with."
