4104. It was narrated from Thâbit that Anas said: "Salmân fell sick and Sa'd came to visit him, and when he saw him he wept. Sa'd said to him: 'Why are you weeping, my brother? Are you not a Companion of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ? Are you not? Are you not?' Salmân said: 'I am only weeping for one reason: I am not weeping because of longing for this world or for
dislike of the Hereafter. But the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ gave me some advice and I think that I have transgressed.' He said: 'What was his advice to you?' He said: 'He advised me that something like the provision of a rider is sufficient for anyone of you, and I think that I have transgressed that. As for you, O Sa'd, fear Allāh when you pass a verdict, and when you distribute (spoils of war), and when you decide to do anything.'" (Hasan)
Thâbit said: "I heard that he only left behind twenty-odd Dirham, from the expenses that he had."

Commentary
The Prophet ﷺ, often gave good news to his Companions, even though they used to consider their usual mistakes as great sins.
Some provisions used to be left with Salman, ﷺ, though it was not his mistake, but he used to fear for that, due to his great piety.
