1408. Abū D̄har added: “My friend told me.” I asked, “Who is your friend?” He said, “The Prophet ﷺ said (to me), ‘O Abū D̄har! Do you see the mountain of Uḥud?’ And on that I (Abū D̄har) started looking towards the sun to judge how much remained of the day, as I thought that Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ wanted to send me to do something for him and I said, ‘Yes!’ He said, ‘I do not love to have gold equal to the mountain of Uḥud unless I spend it all (in Allāh’s Cause) except three Dīnārs. These people do not understand and collect worldly wealth. No, by Allāh, neither I ask them for worldly benefits nor am I in need of their religious verdicts and advices till I meet Allāh, the Honourable, the Majestic.’”

1408 - قَالَ لِي خَلِيلِي، قَالَ: قُلْتُ: مَنْ خَلِيلُكَ؟ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ أَتُبْصِرُ أُحُدًا؟» قَالَ: فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَى الشَّمْسِ مَا بَقِيَ مِنَ النَّهَارِ، وَأَنَا أُرَى أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُرْسِلُنِي فِي حَاجَةٍ لَهُ، قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي مِثْلَ أُحُدٍ ذَهَبًا، أُنْفِقُهُ كُلَّهُ، إِلَّا ثَلاَثَةَ دَنَانِيرَ» وَإِنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ لاَ يَعْقِلُونَ، إِنَّمَا يَجْمَعُونَ الدُّنْيَا، لاَ وَاللَّهِ، لاَ أَسْأَلُهُمْ دُنْيَا، وَلاَ أَسْتَفْتِيهِمْ عَنْ دِينٍ، حَتَّى أَلْقَى اللَّهَ
