حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسًا فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ: فَأَقْبَلْتُ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي قَالَ: "هُمُ الْأَخْسَرُونَ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ " فَجَلَسْتُ فَلَمْ أَتَقَارَّ أَنْ قُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هُمْ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي؟ قَالَ: "هُمُ الْأَكْثَرُونَ مَالًا إِلَّا مَنْ قَالَ بِالْمَالِ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا، وَقَلِيلٌ مَا هُمْ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I presented myself before the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) while he was sitting in the shade of the Ka'bah. The Prophet (ﷺ) said twice, "By the Lord of the Ka'bah! Those people are in loss." A severe grief overtook me and, catching my breath, I began to think that perhaps something new had happened concerning me. So I asked, "Who are those people? May my parents be sacrificed for you." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The wealthy, except for the one who distributes (his wealth) among the servants of Allah in such and such a way, but such people are very few."
