Hadith of a man from his people

حَدِيثُ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، ١٦٦١٦ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النَّضْرِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ فُضَيْلٍ (١) ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ، أَنَّهُ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ قَالَ: شَهِدْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: أَنْتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ أَوْ قَالَ:، ، أَنْتَ مُحَمَّدٌ؟ فَقَالَ: " نَعَمْ "، قَالَ: فَإِلَامَ تَدْعُو (١) ؟ قَالَ: " أَدْعُو إِلَى اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَحْدَهُ، مَنْ إِذَا كَانَ بِكَ ضُرٌّ فَدَعَوْتَهُ كَشَفَهُ عَنْكَ، وَمَنْ إِذَا أَصَابَكَ عَامُ سَنَةٍ فَدَعَوْتَهُ أَنْبَتَ لَكَ، وَمَنْ إِذَا كُنْتَ فِي أَرْضٍ قَفْرٍ فَأَضْلَلْتَ فَدَعَوْتَهُ رَدَّ عَلَيْكَ "، قَالَ: فَأَسْلَمَ الرَّجُلُ ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَوْصِنِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، قَالَ لَهُ (٢) : " لَا تَسُبَّنَّ شَيْئًا "، أَوْ قَالَ: " أَحَدًا " ـ شَكَّ الْحَكَمُ ـ قَالَ: فَمَا سَبَبْتُ بَعِيرًا وَلَا شَاةً مُنْذُ أَوْصَانِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، " وَلَا تَزْهَدْ فِي الْمَعْرُوفِ وَلَوْ مُنْبَسِطٌ وَجْهُكَ إِلَى أَخِيكَ وَأَنْتَ تُكَلِّمُهُ، وَأَفْرِغْ مِنْ دَلْوِكَ فِي إِنَاءِ الْمُسْتَسْقِي، وَاتَّزِرْ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاقِ، فَإِنْ أَبَيْتَ فَإِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ، وَإِيَّاكَ وَإِسْبَالَ الْإِزَارِ، فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْمَخِيلَةِ، وَاللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى لَا يُحِبُّ الْمَخِيلَةَ " (٣)، ،

It is narrated from a Companion (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was present in the service of the Prophet (ﷺ) when a man came and addressing the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Are you the Messenger of Allah?" The Prophet (ﷺ) replied, "Yes!" He asked, "What do you invite to?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "I invite to Allah, Who is One. Tell me, who is that Being that when a calamity befalls you and you call upon Him, He removes your calamity? Who is He that when you are afflicted with drought and you supplicate to Him, He brings forth produce? Who is He that when you lose your way in a desert or wilderness and you supplicate to Him, He brings you back?" Hearing this, that person became Muslim and said, "O Messenger of Allah! Advise me." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not abuse anything." He says that after that, I never abused even a camel or a goat since the Prophet (ﷺ) advised me. "And do not show aversion to any good deed, even if it is meeting your brother with a cheerful face, pouring water from your bucket into the vessel of one who asks for water, and tying your lower garment up to half the shin; if you cannot do that, then up to the ankles, but avoid letting the lower garment hang down, for this is arrogance, and Allah does not like arrogance."
