Abu Said al-Khudri reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was sitting on the pulpit and we were sitting around him, and he said: What I am afraid of in regard to you after my death is that there would be opened for you the adornments of the world and its beauties. A person said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) remained silent. And it was said to him (the man who had asked the question from the Holy Prophet): What Is the matter with you, that you speak with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) but he does not speak with you? We thought as if revelation was descending upon him. He regained himself and wiped the sweat from him and said: He was the inquirer (and his style of expression showed as if he praised him and then added): Verily good does not produce evil. Whatever the spring rainfall causes to grow kills or is about to kill, but that (animal) which feeds on vegetation. It eats till its flanks are filled; it faces the sun and dungs and urinates, and then returns to eat. And this Wealth is a sweet vegetation, and it is a good companion for a Muslim who gives out of it to the needy, to the orphan, to the wayfarer, or something like that as the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: He who takes it without his right is like one who eats but does not feel satisfied, and it would stand witness against him on the Day of Judgment.

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that some people from among the Ansar begged from the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he gave them. They again begged him and he again gave them, till when what was in his possession was exhausted he said: Whatever good (riches, goods) I have, I will not withhold it from you. He who refrains from begging Allah safeguards him against want. and he who seeks sufficiency, Allah would keep him in a state of sufficiency, and he who shows endurance. Allah would grant him power to endure, and none is blessed with an endowment better and greater than endurance.

This hadith has been narrated by Zuhri with the same chain of transmitters.

'Amr bin al-'As reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: He is successful who has accepted Islam, who has been provided with sufficient for his want and been made contented by Allah with what He has given him.

Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: O Allah, make the provision of Muhammad's family sufficient just to sustain life.

Umar bin Khattab (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) distributed something. Upon this I said: Messenger of Allah, I swear by God, the others besides them were more deserving than these (to whom you gave charity). He said: They had in fact left no other alternative for me. but (that they should) either beg importunately from me or they would regard me as a miser, but I am not a miser.

Anas bin Malik (RA) reported: I was walking with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and he had put on a mantle of Najran with a thick border. A bedouin met him and pulled the mantle so violently that I saw this violent pulling leaving marks of the border of the mantle on the skin of the neck of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . And he (the bedouin) said: Muhammad, issue command that I should be given out of the wealth of Allah which is at your disposal. The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) turned his attention to him and smiled, and then ordered for him a gift (provision).

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Anas bin Malik (RA) through another chain of transmitters. And In the hadith transmitted by Ikrima bin 'Amir there is an addition: "He (the bedouin) pulled his (mantle) so violently that the Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was drifted very close to the bedouin." And in the hadith transmitted by Hammam, (the words are): "He pulled it so violently that the mantle was torn and the border was left around the neck of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) ."

Miswar bin Makhrama reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) distributed some cloaks but did not bestow one upon Makhrama. Upon this Makhrama said: O my son, come along with me to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . So I went with him. He said: Enter the house and call him (to come out) for me. So I called him and he (the Holy Prophet) came out, and there was a cloak (from those already distributed) on him. He (the Holy Prophet) said: I had kept it for you. He (Makhrama), looked at it and was pleased.

Miswar bin Makhrama reported: Some cloaks were presented to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) . My father Makhrama said to me: Come along with me to him; perhaps we may be able to get anything out of that (stock of cloaks). My father stood at the door and began to talk. The Apostle of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) recognised him by his voice and came out and there was a cloak with him, and he was showing its beauties and saying: I kept it for you, I kept it for you.
