حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّبَرِيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ تَمِيمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَدِيَّ بْنَ حَاتِمٍ حِينَ أَتَى مَنْزِلًا يَنْزِلُهُ فَأَتَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَسَأَلَ فَقَالَ
مَا مَعِيَ شَيْءٌ أُعْطِيكَهُ وَلَكِنْ لِي دِرْعٌ بِالْكُوفَةِ وَهِيَ لَكَ فَتَسَخَّطَهَا الْأَعْرَابِيُّ فَحَلَفَ أَنْ لَا يُعْطِيَهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا جِئْتُ أَسْأَلُكَ فِي خَادِمٍ أَنْ تُعِينَنِي فِيهَا فَقَالَ أَمَرْتُ لَكَ بِدِرْعِي فَوَاللهِ لَهِيَ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ ثَلَاثَةِ أَعْبُدٍ فَرَغِبَ فِيهَا الْأَعْرَابِيُّ وَقَالَ أَقْبَلُ مَعْرُوفَكَ فَقَالَ عَدِيٌّ لَوْلَا أَنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَنْ حَلَفَ عَلَى يَمِينٍ فَرَأَى خَيْرًا مِنْهَا فَلْيَصْنَعْ الَّذِي هُوَ خَيْرٌ مَا أَعْطَيْتُكَ»

✧ "I have nothing with me to give you, but I have a coat of mail in Kufa, and it is yours." The Bedouin was dissatisfied with it, so he swore not to give it. Then he said, "I only came to ask you for a servant to help me." 'Adi said, "I ordered my coat of mail for you, and by Allah, it is dearer to me than three slaves." The Bedouin became pleased with it and said, "I accept your kindness." 'Adi said, "Had I not heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever swears an oath and then sees something better, let him do what is better,' I would not have given it to you."
