حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا زَيْدُ بْنُ أَسْلَمَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ قَالَ لِصُهَيْبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا: لَوْلَا ثَلَاثُ خِصَالٍ فِيكَ، لَمْ يَكُنْ بِكَ بَأْسٌ، قَالَ: وَمَا هُنَّ؟ فَوَاللهِ مَا نَرَاكَ تَعِيبُ شَيْئًا، قَالَ: اكْتِنَاؤُكَ بِأَبِي يَحْيَى وَلَيْسَ لَكَ وَلَدٌ، وَادِّعَاؤُكَ إِلَى النَّمِرِ بْنِ قَاسِطٍ وَأَنْتَ رَجُلٌ أَلْكَنُ، وَأَنَّكَ لَا تُمْسِكُ الْمَالَ. قَالَ: " أَمَّا اكْتِنَائِي بِأَبِي يَحْيَى، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَنَّانِي بِهَا، فَلَا أَدَعُهَا حَتَّى أَلْقَاهُ "، وَأَمَّا ادِّعَائِي إِلَى النَّمِرِ بْنِ قَاسِطٍ، فَإِنِّي امْرُؤٌ مِنْهُمْ، وَلَكِنْ اسْتُرْضِعَ لِي بِالْأَبْلَةِ، فَهَذِهِ اللُّكْنَةُ مِنْ ذَاكَ، وَأَمَّا الْمَالُ، فَهَلْ تُرَانِي أُنْفِقُ إِلَّا فِي حَقٍّ (١)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Zaid bin Aslam, may Allah have mercy on him, that once Farooq-e-Azam, may Allah be pleased with him, said to Suhaib, may Allah be pleased with him: "If you did not have three things, there would be no fault in you." He asked, "What are they? For we have never seen you finding fault in anything." He replied, "First, you keep your kunyah as Abu Yahya, even though you have no children. Second, you attribute yourself to Namar bin Qasit, while you have a stammer in your speech. And third, you do not possess wealth." Suhaib, may Allah be pleased with him, said, "As for my kunyah Abu Yahya, the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, gave it to me, so I can never abandon it until I meet him. As for my attribution to Namar bin Qasit, that is correct because I am indeed one of them, but since I was nursed in 'Aylah', this stammer developed. And as for wealth, have you ever seen me spend it in a place that is unjust?"
