English translation

1664. Ibn 'Abbās narrated: "When the Verse: 'And those who hoard gold and silver treasures...' [1] was revealed, it was very difficult for the Muslims. 'Umar said, 'I will lighten (your worries) for you,' so he went to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Prophet of Allāh! This Verse has proven very difficult for your Companions!' So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Allāh has only legislated Zakāt upon you so that He may purify the rest of [1] At-Tawbah (9:34) your wealth for you. And He has legislated the laws of inheritance so that it may be for those after you.' So 'Umar said the Takbīr (out of joy), then the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Should I not inform you of the greatest treasure a man can store? A pious woman: If he looks at her, she pleases him, and if he commands her, she obeys him, and if he is absent from her, she protects him (is chaste).'" (Da'if)

1664 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَعْلَى الْمُحَارِبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا غَيْلَانُ، عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ إِيَاسٍ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ: {وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ} [التوبة: 34]، قَالَ: كَبُرَ ذَلِكَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: أَنَا أُفَرِّجُ عَنْكُمْ، فَانْطَلَقَ، فَقَالَ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ، إِنَّهُ كَبُرَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِكَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمْ يَفْرِضِ الزَّكَاةَ، إِلَّا لِيُطَيِّبَ مَا بَقِيَ مِنْ أَمْوَالِكُمْ، وَإِنَّمَا فَرَضَ الْمَوَارِيثَ لِتَكُونَ لِمَنْ بَعْدَكُمْ»، فَكَبَّرَ عُمَرُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ: «أَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِخَيْرِ مَا يَكْنِزُ الْمَرْءُ؟ الْمَرْأَةُ الصَّالِحَةُ، إِذَا نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا سَرَّتْهُ، وَإِذَا أَمَرَهَا أَطَاعَتْهُ، وَإِذَا غَابَ عَنْهَا حَفِظَتْهُ»
