حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ التَّيْمِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزَّعْرَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ مَالِكِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " الْأَيْدِي ثَلَاثَةٌ، فَيَدُ اللهِ الْعُلْيَا، وَيَدُ الْمُعْطِي الَّتِي تَلِيهَا، وَيَدُ السَّائِلِ السُّفْلَى، فَأَعْطِ الْفَضْلَ، وَلَا تَعْجَزْ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ " (٣)، ،
