Hadith 33:99
Abdullah ibn Idris narrated to us, from Muhammad ibn Umar, from Abdullah ibn Abd al-Rahman ibn Ma'mar, from a man from Banu Salim or Fahm, that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, was brought a gift. He looked and did not find anything to place it in, so he said, "Place it on the ground, for I am only a servant; I eat as a servant eats, and I drink as a servant drinks." And if the world weighed as much as the wing of a mosquito in the sight of Allah, He would not have given a disbeliever a drink of water from it.
حدثنا عبد الله بن إدريس عن محمد بن عمر عن عبد الله بن عبد الرحمن بن معمر عن رجل من بني سالم أو فهم أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أتي بهدية فنظر فلم يجد شيئا يجعلها فيه فقال ضعه بالحضيض فانما هو عبد يأكل كما يأكل العبد ويشرب كما يشرب العبد ولو كانت الدنيا تزن عند الله جناح بعوضة ما سقى منها كافرا شربة ماء
