حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي قَيْسٌ،، ، عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ الْكِنْدِيِّ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْكُمْ لَنَا عَلَى عَمَلٍ، فَكَتَمَنَا مِنْهُ مِخْيَطًا فَمَا فَوْقَهُ، فَهُوَ غُلٌّ، يَأْتِي بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ " قَالَ: فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَسْوَدُ - قَالَ مُجَالِدٌ: هُوَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ - كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ، قَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، اقْبَلْ عَنِّي عَمَلَكَ، فَقَالَ: " وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ " قَالَ: سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ: كَذَا وَكَذَا، قَالَ: " وَأَنَا أَقُولُ ذَلِكَ الْآنَ، مَنْ اسْتَعْمَلْنَاهُ عَلَى عَمَلٍ، فَلْيَجِئْ بِقَلِيلِهِ وَكَثِيرِهِ، فَمَا أُوتِيَ مِنْهُ أَخَذَهُ، وَمَا نُهِيَ عَنْهُ انْتَهَى " (١)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Adi bin Umairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: O people! Whoever among you is appointed to a task by us and he conceals from us even a thread or something less than that, it is a betrayal with which he will come on the Day of Resurrection. Upon hearing this, an Ansari of dark complexion stood up—he is still before my eyes—and said, O Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), please take back the responsibility you assigned to me. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, What happened? He said, I heard you say this. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Then I now say that whoever we appoint to a responsibility should bring everything, whether little or much, to us. Then, whatever is given to him from it, he may take, and from whatever he is forbidden, he should refrain. The previous hadith is also narrated through this second chain.
