حَدِيثُ عَمْرِو بْنِ تَغْلِبَ، ٢٠٦٧٢ - حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَاهُ شَيْءٌ فَأَعْطَاهُ نَاسًا وَتَرَكَ نَاسًا وَقَالَ جَرِيرٌ أَعْطَى رِجَالًا وَتَرَكَ رِجَالًا قَالَ فَبَلَغَهُ عَنْ الَّذِينَ تَرَكَ أَنَّهُمْ عَتِبُوا وَقَالُوا قَالَ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنِّي أُعْطِي نَاسًا وَأَدَعُ نَاسًا وَأُعْطِي رِجَالًا وَأَدَعُ رِجَالًا قَالَ عَفَّانُ قَالَ ذِي وَذِي وَالَّذِي أَدَعُ أَحَبُّ، ، إِلَيَّ مِنْ الَّذِي أُعْطِي أُعْطِي أُنَاسًا لِمَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنْ الْجَزَعِ وَالْهَلَعِ وَأَكِلُ قَوْمًا إِلَى مَا جَعَلَ اللهُ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنْ الْغِنَى وَالْخَيْرِ مِنْهُمْ عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ قَالَ وَكُنْتُ جَالِسًا تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي بِكَلِمَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Amr bin Taghlib that once something came to the Prophet (peace be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) gave it to some people and left out some others. Later, the Prophet (peace be upon him) came to know that those whom he had left out were upset and talking among themselves. The Prophet (peace be upon him) then ascended the pulpit, and after praising and glorifying Allah, said: "I give to some people and leave out others, even though the ones I leave out are more beloved to me than those to whom I give. I give to some people only because their hearts are filled with impatience and miserliness, and I entrust some people to the richness and goodness that Allah has placed in their hearts. Among them is Amr bin Taghlib as well." I was sitting right in front of the Prophet (peace be upon him) at that time. I would not like to have red camels in exchange for this statement of the Prophet (peace be upon him).
