Arabic text

2307 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنِ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْأَغْنِيَاءَ بِاتِّخَاذِ الْغَنَمِ، وَأَمَرَ الْفُقَرَاءَ بِاتِّخَاذِ الدَّجَاجِ، وَقَالَ: «عِنْدَ اتِّخَاذِ الْأَغْنِيَاءِ الدَّجَاجَ، يَأْذَنُ اللَّهُ بِهَلَاكِ الْقُرَى»
