Hadith Number: 103
103/138 عن عبد الرحمن بن ابزى قال: قال داود:"كن لليتيم كالاب الرحيم، واعلم انك كما تزرع كذلك تحصد، ما اقبح الفقر بعد الغنى واكثر من ذلك او اقبح من ذلك الضلالة بعد الهدى، وإذا وعدت صاحبك فانجز له ما وعدته؛ فإن لا تفعل يورث بينك وبينه عداوة، وتعوذ بالله من صاحب إن ذكرت لم يعنك، وإن نسيت لم يذكرك".
It is narrated from Abdur Rahman bin Abzi, he says, Dawood says, "Be to the orphan like a compassionate father, and also know that as you sow, so shall you reap. How bad it is to become needy after being wealthy, and even worse or more severe than this is that a person goes astray after receiving guidance. When you make a promise to your companion, fulfill whatever promise you make; if you do not do so, enmity will be created between you and him. And seek Allah's refuge from such a companion who does not help you when you remember, and does not remind you when you forget."
