I said (tomyself), "What is wrong with me? Is anythingimproper detected in me? What is wrongwith me?"(1) Then I sat beside him and hekept on saying his statement. I could notremain quiet, and Allāh knows in whatsorrowful state I was at that time. So I said,"Who are they (the losers)? Let my fatherand mother be sacrificed for you, O Allāh'sMessenger!" He said, "They are the wealthypeople, except the one who does like this;and like this, and like this (i.e., spends hiswealth in Allāh's Cause)."

6638 - حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنِ المَعْرُورِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، قَالَ: انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ فِي ظِلِّ الكَعْبَةِ، يَقُولُ: «هُمُ الأَخْسَرُونَ وَرَبِّ الكَعْبَةِ، هُمُ الأَخْسَرُونَ وَرَبِّ الكَعْبَةِ» قُلْتُ: مَا شَأْنِي أَيُرَى فِيَّ شَيْءٌ، مَا شَأْنِي؟ فَجَلَسْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ، فَمَا اسْتَطَعْتُ أَنْ أَسْكُتَ، وَتَغَشَّانِي مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ، فَقُلْتُ: مَنْ هُمْ بِأَبِي أَنْتَ وَأُمِّي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ؟ قَالَ: «الأَكْثَرُونَ أَمْوَالًا، إِلَّا مَنْ قَالَ هَكَذَا، وَهَكَذَا، وَهَكَذَا»
