حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَامِرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا بِهِمْ مِنَ الْحَاجَةِ، خَرَجَ إِلَى الْبَرِيَّةِ، فَلَمَّا رَأَتْ ذَلِكَ (٥) امْرَأَتُهُ قَامَتْ إِلَى الرَّحَى، فَوَضَعَتْهَا، وَإِلَى التَّنُّورِ فَسَجَرَتْهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَتْ: اللهُمَّ ارْزُقْنَا.، ، فَنَظَرَتْ فَإِذَا الْجَفْنَةُ قَدِ امْتَلَأَتْ. قَالَ: وَذَهَبَتْ إِلَى التَّنُّورِ فَوَجَدَتْهُ مُمْتَلِئًا. قَالَ: فَرَجَعَ الزَّوْجُ، قَالَ: أَصَبْتُمْ بَعْدِي شَيْئًا؟ قَالَتْ امْرَأَتُهُ: نَعَمْ مِنْ رَبِّنَا. قَامَ إِلَى الرَّحَى. فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَوْ لَمْ يَرْفَعْهَا، لَمْ تَزَلْ تَدُورُ (١) إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ " شَهِدْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ: " وَاللهِ، لَأَنْ يَأْتِيَ أَحَدُكُمْ صُبَيْرًا (٢) ، ثُمَّ يَحْمِلَهُ يَبِيعَهُ فَيَسْتَعِفَّ مِنْهُ، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا يَسْأَلُهُ " (٣)، ،
Translation
English translation
A man came to his wife and saw signs of distress on her, so he went out towards the wilderness. Seeing this, his wife went to the millstone, brought it, and set it up, and kindled the oven, and said, "O Allah, grant us sustenance." She saw that the pot was filled, and when she went to the oven, it too was full. After a short while, her husband returned and said, "Did you get anything after me?" His wife said, "Yes, from our Lord." So he got up and went to the millstone and lifted it. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "If he had not lifted the millstone from its place, it would have kept turning until the Day of Resurrection." It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said in my presence, "By Allah! It is much better that one of you goes to the mountain, gathers firewood, ties it in a bundle, carries it on his back, sells it, and thereby maintains his chastity, than that he goes to someone and begs from him."
