حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ: أَنْبَأَنَا، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْأَحْوَصِ يُحَدِّثُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا قَشِفُ (١) الْهَيْئَةِ، فَقَالَ: " هَلْ لَكَ مَالٌ؟ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " فَمَا مَالُكَ؟ " فَقَالَ: مِنْ كُلِّ الْمَالِ مِنَ الْخَيْلِ، وَالْإِبِلِ، وَالرَّقِيقِ، وَالْغَنَمِ، قَالَ: " فَإِذَا آتَاكَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مَالًا فَلْيُرَ عَلَيْكَ " فَقَالَ: " هَلْ تُنْتِجُ إِبِلُ قَوْمِكَ صِحَاحًا آذَانُهَا فَتَعْمَدُ إِلَى الْمُوسَى فَتَقْطَعُهَا، أَوْ تَقْطَعُهَا؟ وَتَقُولُ: هَذِهِ بُحُرٌ، وَتَشُقُّ جُلُودَهَا، وَتَقُولُ: هَذِهِ صُرُمٌ، فَتُحَرِّمُهَا عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَى أَهْلِكَ "، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: " كُلُّ مَا آتَاكَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَكَ (٢) حِلٌّ، وَسَاعِدُ اللهِ أَشَدُّ ومُوسَى اللهِ أَحَدُّ " وَرُبَّمَا قَالَهَا، وَرُبَّمَا لَمْ، ، يَقُلْهَا، وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: " سَاعِدُ اللهِ أَشَدُّ مِنْ سَاعِدِكَ وَمُوسَى اللهِ أَحَدُّ مِنْ مُوسَاكَ " قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ رَجُلٌ نَزَلْتُ بِهِ فَلَمْ يَقْرِنِي، وَلَمْ يُكْرِمْنِي، ثُمَّ نَزَلَ بِي أَقْرهِ، أَوْ أَجْزِيهِ، بِمَا صَنَعَ؟ قَالَ: " بَلْ اقْرِهِ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Malik that once the Prophet (peace be upon him) saw me in a disheveled state and asked: Do you have any wealth? I replied: Yes. The Prophet (peace be upon him) asked: What kind of wealth do you have? I replied: Allah has granted me all kinds of wealth, such as goats and camels, etc. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Then the effects of Allah’s blessings and honor should be visible on you. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Is it not the case that in your tribe, when someone has a camel born here with sound ears, you take a razor and cut its ear and say this is Bahira, sometimes you skin them and say this is Sarm, and sometimes you declare them forbidden for your family? He replied: Yes, it is so. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Whatever Allah has granted you is all lawful. Allah’s power is greater and Allah’s razor is sharper. I asked: O Messenger of Allah! Tell me, if I go as a guest to someone and he neither honors me nor shows hospitality, then if that same person comes to me as a guest, should I treat him the same way he treated me, or should I show him hospitality? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: You should show him hospitality.
