حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ سَلْمَانَ (١) بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ، قَالَ:، سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ، يَقُولُ: قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قِسْمَةً، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، لَغَيْرُ هَؤُلاءِ أَحَقُّ مِنْهُمْ: أَهْلُ الصُّفَّةِ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّكُمْ تُخَيِّرُونِي بَيْنَ (٢) أَنْ تَسْأَلُونِي بِالْفُحْشِ، وَبَيْنَ أَنْ تُبَخِّلُونِي (٣) ، وَلَسْتُ بِبَاخِلٍ " (٤) .،

Salman bin Rabee'ah said. I heard ‘Umar say:
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ shared out (some booty) and I said: O Messenger of Allah, others are more deserving of this than them: ahlus-suffah. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: `You are giving me the choice of having you ask importunately or regard me as a miser, and I am not a miser.`
