حَدَّثَنَا حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، وَإِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا بَقِيَّةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي بَحِيرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ مَعْدَانَ، عَنْ سَيْفٍ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُمْ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَضَى بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ، فَقَالَ الْمَقْضِيُّ عَلَيْهِ لَمَّا أَدْبَرَ: حَسْبِيَ اللهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " رُدُّوا عَلَيَّ الرَّجُلَ " فَقَالَ: " مَا قُلْتَ؟ ": قَالَ: قُلْتُ: حَسْبِيَ اللهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ اللهَ يَلُومُ عَلَى الْعَجْزِ، وَلَكِنْ عَلَيْكَ بِالْكَيْسِ، فَإِذَا غَلَبَكَ أَمْرٌ، ، فَقُلْ: حَسْبِيَ اللهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) decided a case between two men. The one against whom the decision was made, while returning, said, "Hasbiyallahu wa ni'mal wakeel." The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Call that man back to me and ask him what he just said." He replied, "I said, 'Hasbiyallahu wa ni'mal wakeel.'" The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Allah reproaches foolishness; you should act with wisdom. Even then, if you are overpowered, then say, 'Hasbiyallahu wa ni'mal wakeel.'"
