حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَادَةُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ خَبَّابٍ عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الطَّائِىِّ أَبِى الْبَخْتَرِىِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِى أَبُو كَبْشَةَ الأَنْمَارِىُّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ثَلاَثَةٌ أُقْسِمُ عَلَيْهِنَّ وَأُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَدِيثًا فَاحْفَظُوهُ. قَالَ مَا نَقَصَ مَالُ عَبْدٍ مِنْ صَدَقَةٍ وَلاَ ظُلِمَ عَبْدٌ مَظْلِمَةً فَصَبَرَ عَلَيْهَا إِلاَّ زَادَهُ اللَّهُ عِزًّا وَلاَ فَتَحَ عَبْدٌ بَابَ مَسْأَلَةٍ إِلاَّ فَتَحَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بَابَ فَقْرٍ أَوْ كَلِمَةً نَحْوَهَا وَأُحَدِّثُكُمْ حَدِيثًا فَاحْفَظُوهُ قَالَ إِنَّمَا الدُّنْيَا لأَرْبَعَةِ نَفَرٍ عَبْدٍ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ مَالاً وَعِلْمًا فَهُوَ يَتَّقِى فِيهِ رَبَّهُ وَيَصِلُ فِيهِ رَحِمَهُ وَيَعْلَمُ لِلَّهِ فِيهِ حَقًّا فَهَذَا بِأَفْضَلِ الْمَنَازِلِ وَعَبْدٍ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ عِلْمًا وَلَمْ يَرْزُقْهُ مَالاً فَهُوَ صَادِقُ النِّيَّةِ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِى مَالاً لَعَمِلْتُ بِعَمَلِ فُلاَنٍ فَهُوَ بِنِيَّتِهِ فَأَجْرُهُمَا سَوَاءٌ وَعَبْدٍ رَزَقَهُ اللَّهُ مَالاً وَلَمْ يَرْزُقْهُ عِلْمًا فَهُوَ يَخْبِطُ فِى مَالِهِ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ لاَ يَتَّقِى فِيهِ رَبَّهُ وَلاَ يَصِلُ فِيهِ رَحِمَهُ وَلاَ يَعْلَمُ لِلَّهِ فِيهِ حَقًّا فَهَذَا بِأَخْبَثِ الْمَنَازِلِ وَعَبْدٍ لَمْ يَرْزُقْهُ اللَّهُ مَالاً وَلاَ عِلْمًا فَهُوَ يَقُولُ لَوْ أَنَّ لِى مَالاً لَعَمِلْتُ فِيهِ بِعَمَلِ فُلاَنٍ فَهُوَ بِنِيَّتِهِ فَوِزْرُهُمَا سَوَاءٌ. قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.
The Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, said, "Three [things] I swear by, and I am telling you a statement for you to learn." He said, "A bondsman’s wealth is never decreased by charity; no bondsman is ever wronged, and endures with patience, without God giving him (1) greater honor; and no bondsman opens the door of asking [people], without God opening for him a door of poverty- or he said a similar word (2)." He continued, "And I am telling you a statement for you to learn. Indeed, there are four types of people in the worldly life. A bondsman whom God has sustained with wealth and knowledge, so he is mindful of his Lord in [using] them; he upholds kinship ties and acknowledges the rights of God over him. Such [a person] is in the best of ranks. And a bondsman whom God has sustained with knowledge but not wealth, and he sincerely says, ' Had I possessed wealth, I would have acted like that person.' Then he is deserving of his intention, and both are equally rewarded. And a bondsman whom God has sustained with wealth but not knowledge, so he squanders his wealth in ignorance and is not mindful of his Lord in [using] it, nor does he uphold kinship ties, or acknowledge the rights of God over him. Such [a person] is in the vilest of ranks. And there is a bondsman whom God has neither sustained with wealth nor with knowledge and he says, 'Had I possessed wealth, I would have acted like that person.' Then he is deserving of his intention, and both will bear an equal burden. " Footnotes: (1) Masculine nouns and pronouns are generally used in Arabic as a means for referring to both men and women when the meaning is left general and is not otherwise specified. (2) The uncertainty is from the narrator. Click on ḥadīth to read more
