(1) N and M read: “If one of you were to spend enough gold to fill the earth.” (2) The hadith—with some variation in wording—is narrated from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī—may Allah be pleased with him—in: *al-Bukhārī*, 5 (Book of the Companions of the Prophet—may Allah bless him and grant him peace, chapter: The Prophet’s Statement, “Had I Been One to Take an Intimate Friend”); *Muslim*, 4/1967–1968 (Book of the Merits of the Companions, chapter: The Prohibition of Reviling the Companions...); *Sunan Abī Dāwūd*, 4/297–298 (Book of the Sunnah, chapter: The Prohibition of Reviling the Companions of Allah’s Messenger—may Allah bless him and grant him peace); *Sunan al-Tirmidhī*, 5/357–358 (Book of Virtues, chapter: Concerning One Who Reviles the Companions of the Prophet—may Allah bless him and grant him peace); *al-Musnad* (al-Halabī ed.), 3/11, 54, 63, 64; and *Sunan Ibn Mājah*, 1/57 (Introduction, chapter: The Merit of the People of Badr). *Al-Lisān* states: “The *mudd* is a type of dry measure equal to one quarter of a *sāʿ*. This is the measure of the Prophet’s *mudd*—may Allah bless him and grant him peace—and a *sāʿ* is five *ratls*.” Al-Nawawī states (*Sharh Muslim*, 16/93): “The linguists say that *nasīf* means ‘half.’ ... Thus, even if one of you were to spend an amount of gold equal to Mount Uhud, its reward would not equal the reward earned by one of my Companions for spending a *mudd*, or even half a *mudd*.” (3) “May Allah be pleased with him” is added in A and B. (4) N reads: “If one of you were to spend.” (5) “In gold” is omitted from N. (6) The hadith occurs in *Muslim*, 4/1967, and in *Sunan Ibn Mājah*, 1/57. (7) “Ibn ʿAbd Allāh” is added in A and B. (8) N reads: “the Companions of Allah’s Messenger”; M reads: “the Companions of Muhammad—may Allah bless him and grant him peace.”
