Arabic text

١٨٩٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ‌ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ ‌عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «سَاقِي الْقَوْمِ» آخِرُهُمْ شُرْبًا. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary

Islamic etiquette is built on the principle that if a person is designated to provide some sort of service or relief to the people, let him first and foremost serve the people and avoid placing self-interest above that of others.
