English translation

[378] 236 - (150) It was narrated from 'Āmir bin Sa'd that his father said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ distributed (some wealth) and I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, give to so-and-so, for he is a believer.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Or a Muslim.' I said it three times, and each time he replied: 'Or a Muslim.' Then he said: 'I may give to one man, although someone else is more beloved to me than him, for fear lest Allāh throw him into the Fire.'"

Arabic text

236 - (150) حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَسْمًا، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَعْطِ فُلَانًا فَإِنَّهُ مُؤْمِنٌ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَوْ مُسْلِمٌ» أَقُولُهَا ثَلَاثًا، وَيُرَدِّدُهَا عَلَيَّ ثَلَاثًا «أَوْ مُسْلِمٌ»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنِّي لَأُعْطِي الرَّجُلَ، وَغَيْرُهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْهُ، مَخَافَةَ أَنْ يَكُبَّهُ اللهُ فِي النَّارِ»
