حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ أَخِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ: قَدِمَ رَجُلَانِ مَعِي مِنْ قَوْمِي قَالَ: فَأَتَيْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَخَطَبَا، وَتَكَلَّمَا، فَجَعَلَا يُعَرِّضَانِ بِالْعَمَلِ، فَتَغَيَّرَ وَجْهُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ رُئِيَ فِي وَجْهِهِ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ أَخْوَنَكُمْ عِنْدِي مَنْ يَطْلُبُهُ، فَعَلَيْكُمَا (٢) بِتَقْوَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ " قَالَ: فَمَا اسْتَعَانَ بِهِمَا عَلَى شَيْءٍ (٣)، ، . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that two men from my tribe came with me. We presented ourselves before the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). During the conversation, both of them requested a position. At this, the blessed face of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) changed color, and he said: "The greatest traitor in my sight is the one who seeks a position. Therefore, both of you adhere to piety." And the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) did not assign them any responsibility.
