Makarim al-Akhlaq - Ibn Abi al-Dunya - (124)

412 — Al-Hasan ibn al-Sabbāh narrated to us, saying: Yahyā ibn Abī Bukayr narrated to us, from al-Alā ibn Sālih, from al-Minhāl ibn Amr, who said: A woman sent her son to the Prophet—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—and told him, “Go to him, convey my greetings of peace, and say to him, ‘My mother asks you to clothe her.’ If he tells you, ‘Wait until something comes to us,’ then say to him, ‘She asks you to clothe her with your own shirt.’” He went to him, and the Prophet said, “Wait until something comes to us.” The boy then said to him, “She asks you to clothe her with your own shirt.” So he took off his shirt and handed it to him. Allah Most High then revealed: “Do not keep your hand chained to your neck, nor extend it to its utmost reach.” [al-Isrā: 29]

٤١٢ - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، نا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ، عَنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، قَالَ: أَرْسَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ ابْنَهَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ: ايْتِهِ فَأَقْرِهِ السَّلَامَ وَقُلْ لَهُ: إِنَّ أَمِّي تَقُولُ لَكَ: اكْسُنِي، فَإِنْ قَالَ لَكَ: حَتَّى يَأْتِيَنَا شَيْءٌ، فَقُلْ لَهُ: إِنَّهَا تَقُولُ لَكَ اكْسُنِي قَمِيصَكَ، فَأَتَاهُ فَقَالَ: «حَتَّى يَأْتِيَنَا شَيْءٌ» ، فَقَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّهَا تَقُولُ لَكَ: اكْسُنِي قَمِيصَكَ، فَنَزَعَ قَمِيصَهُ فَدَفَعَهُ إِلَيْهِ، فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: ﴿وَلَا تَجْعَلْ يَدَكَ مَغْلُولَةً إِلَى عُنُقِكَ وَلَا تَبْسُطْهَا كُلَّ الْبَسْطِ﴾ [الإسراء: ٢٩] "
