حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ ثنا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ الزَّهْرَانِيُّ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ الْمُؤَدِّبُ ثنا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَا ثنا فُلَيْحُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ وَعُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مِنَ الْمَالِ فَأَلْحَحْتُ فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَعْطَانِي فَقَالَ «مَا أَنْكَرَ مَسْأَلَتَكَ يَا حَكِيمُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ وَإِنَّهَا أَوْسَاخُ أَيْدِي النَّاسِ فَمَنْ أَخَذَهَا بِسَخَاوَةٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهَا وَمَنْ أَخَذَهَا بِإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ وَكَانَ كَالْآكِلِ وَلَا يَشْبَعُ يَدُ اللهِ فَوْقَ يَدِ الْمُعْطِي وَيَدُ الْمُعْطِي فَوْقَ يَدِ الْمُعْطَى وَيَدُ الْمُعْطَى أَسْفَلُ الْأَيْدِي»

✧ I asked the Messenger of God ﷺ for wealth and persisted, so he gave me. Then I asked him, and he gave me. He said, "How persistent your asking is, O Ḥakīm. This wealth is green and sweet, and it is the filth of people's hands. Whoever takes it with generosity will be blessed in it, and whoever takes it with eager desire will not be blessed in it, and he will be like one who eats but never becomes full. The hand of God is above the hand of the giver, and the hand of the giver is above the hand of the recipient, and the hand of the recipient is the lowest of hands."
