[7463] (...) Abû 'Abdur-Raḥmân said: "Three people came to 'Abdullâh bin 'Amr bin Al-Âš when I was with him, and they said: 'O Abû Muḥammad, by Allâh we do not have anything, no provisions, no riding beasts and no wealth.' He said to them: 'Whatever you wish. If you wish, you can come back to us and we will give you whatever Allâh makes available for you, or if you wish we can refer your matter to the ruler, or if you wish you can be patient, for I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: "On the Day of Resurrection, the poor of the Muhâjirîn will precede the rich into Paradise by forty years." They said: 'We will be patient and will not ask for anything.'"

Arabic text

37 - قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: وَجَاءَ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، وَأَنَا عِنْدَهُ، فَقَالُوا: يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّا، وَاللهِ مَا نَقْدِرُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ، لَا نَفَقَةٍ، وَلَا دَابَّةٍ، وَلَا مَتَاعٍ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ: مَا شِئْتُمْ، إِنْ شِئْتُمْ رَجَعْتُمْ إِلَيْنَا فَأَعْطَيْنَاكُمْ مَا يَسَّرَ اللهُ لَكُمْ، وَإِنْ شِئْتُمْ ذَكَرْنَا أَمْرَكُمْ لِلسُّلْطَانِ، وَإِنْ شِئْتُمْ صَبَرْتُمْ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «إِنَّ فُقَرَاءَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ يَسْبِقُونَ الْأَغْنِيَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ، بِأَرْبَعِينَ خَرِيفًا» قَالُوا: فَإِنَّا نَصْبِرُ، لَا نَسْأَلُ شَيْئًا
