2273. Narrated Abū Mas'ūd Al-Ansārī رضي الله عنه: Whenever Allāh's Messenger ﷺ ordered us to give in charity we would go to the market and work as porters to earn a Mudd (two hand-fulls) (of foodstuff), but now some of us have one hundred thousand Dirham or Dīnār. (The sub-narrator) Shaqīq said, "I think Abū Mas'ūd meant himself by saying (some of us)."

Arabic text

2273 - حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ القُرَشِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَمَرَنَا بِالصَّدَقَةِ، انْطَلَقَ أَحَدُنَا إِلَى السُّوقِ، فَيُحَامِلُ، فَيُصِيبُ المُدَّ، وَإِنَّ لِبَعْضِهِمْ لَمِائَةَ أَلْفٍ» قَالَ: مَا تَرَاهُ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ
