حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْخَفَّافُ الْمِصْرِيُّ ثنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ثنا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ أَنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ سَيِّدُكُمْ يَا بَنِي سَلَمَةَ؟» قَالُوا سَيِّدُنَا الْجَدُّ بْنُ قَيْسٍ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لِمَ تُسَوِّدُونَهُ؟» قَالُوا فَإِنَّهُ أَكْثَرُ مِنَّا مَالًا وَإِنَّا لَنَزِنُهُ بِالْبُخْلِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «وَأَيُّ دَاءٍ أَدْوَأُ مِنَ الْبُخْلِ لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ سَيِّدُكُمْ» قَالُوا فَمَنْ سَيِّدُنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «سَيِّدُكُمْ بِشْرُ بْنُ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ مَعْرُورٍ»

✧ He informed him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Who is your chief, O Banu Salimah?' They said: 'Our chief is al-Jadd b. Qays.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Why do you make him your chief?' They said: 'Because he has more wealth than us, though we consider him stingy.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'And what disease is worse than stinginess? That is not your chief.' They said: 'Then who is our chief, O Messenger of Allah?' He said: 'Your chief is Bishr b. al-Bara' b. Ma'rur.'
