It is narrated from Ahnaf bin Qais, he says: I was in Madinah Munawwarah, I saw that when people saw a certain man, they would run away from him. I asked that man, "Who are you?" He replied, "I am Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him), a companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." I asked him, "Why do people run away when they see you?" He replied, "I stop them from hoarding those treasures, that is, wealth and riches, from which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had forbidden them."
