My mother sent me to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to ask him for something. I came to him and sat down. He turned toward me and said, "Whoever seeks to be self-sufficient, Allah will make him self-sufficient. Whoever seeks chastity, Allah will keep him chaste. Whoever seeks sufficiency, Allah will suffice him. And whoever begs while he possesses the value of an ounce has begged excessively."I said to myself, "My she-camel Yaqutah is worth more than an ounce." So I returned without asking him for anything.
حدثنا قتيبة بن سعيد حدثنا عبد الرحمن بن أبي الرجال عن عمارة بن غزية
سرحتني أمي إلى رسول الله ﷺ أسأله فأتيته فقعدت قال فاستقبلني فقال من استغنى أغناه الله ومن استعف أعفه الله ومن استكفى كفاه الله ومن سأل وله قيمة أوقية فقد ألحف قال فقلت ناقتي الياقوتة هي خير من أوقية فرجعت ولم أسأله
Its isnad is hasan. Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Rijal is truthful, and Umarah is not objectionable. Abdul-Rahman bin Abu Saeed is trustworthy. It was mentioned earlier at 10938 that the imams held the correct version to be Rabih bin Abdul-Rahman, from his father, from his grandfather, and that he is trustworthy. The hadith was mentioned earlier at 10948. His saying "the Yaqutah" is the name of his she-camel.
