Abu Hurairah reported,

A man came home to his family, and when he saw the hardship they were in, he went out into the wilderness. When his wife saw this, she got up, set the millstone in place, and lit the oven. Then she said, "Allah, provide for us."She looked, and behold, the bowl had filled up. She went to the oven and found it full as well.The husband returned and asked, "Did you receive anything after I left?"His wife replied, "Yes, from our Lord."He went over to the millstone, and this was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ, who said, "Had he not lifted it, it would have kept turning until the Day of Resurrection."I witnessed the Prophet ﷺ saying, "By Allah, for one of you to go and gather a bundle of firewood, then carry it and sell it, restraining himself from begging, is better for him than going to a man to ask him for something."

حدثنا ابن عامر أخبرنا أبو بكر عن هشام عن محمد

عن أبي هريرة قال

دخل رجل على أهله فلما رأى ما بهم من الحاجة خرج إلى البرية فلما رأت امرأته قامت إلى الرحى فوضعتها وإلى التنور فسجرته ثم قالت اللهم ارزقنا فنظرت فإذا الجفنة قد امتلأت قال وذهبت إلى التنور فوجدته ممتلئا قال فرجع الزوج قال أصبتم بعدي شيئا قالت امرأته نعم من ربنا قام إلى الرحى فذكر ذلك للنبي ﷺ فقال أما إنه لو لم يرفعها لم تزل تدور إلى يوم القيامة شهدت النبي ﷺ وهو يقول والله لأن يأتي أحدكم صبيرا ثم يحمله يبيعه فيستعف منه خير له من أن يأتي رجلا يسأله
