The Remainder of the Hadith of ‘Amr ibn al-‘As (RA) from the Prophet (SAW)

بقية حديث عمرو بن العاص (1) عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم

Hadith 551:17

Yahya ibn Ishaq narrated to us, he said: Layth ibn Sa’d narrated to us, from Yazid ibn Abi Habib, from Ali ibn Rabah, he said: I heard ‘Amr ibn al-‘As saying: "You have reached the morning and the evening desiring that which the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, used to renounce. You have reached the morning desiring the worldly life, while the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, used to renounce it. By Allah, not a single night passed over the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in his lifetime, except that what was owed by him was more than what was owed to him." He said: So some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said to him: "We have seen the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, borrowing." And someone other than Yahya said: "By Allah, three days never passed over the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, in his lifetime, except that what was owed by him was more than what was owed to him."

حدثنا يحيى بن إسحاق، قال: حدثنا ليث بن سعد، عن يزيد بن أبي حبيب، عن علي بن رباح، قال: سمعت عمرو بن العاص، يقول: " لقد أصبحتم، وأمسيتم، ترغبون فيما كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يزهد فيه: أصبحتم ترغبون في الدنيا، وكان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يزهد فيها، والله ما أتت على رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ليلة من دهره إلا كان الذي عليه أكثر مما له، قال: فقال له بعض أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: قد رأينا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم يستسلف وقال: غير يحيى " والله ما مر برسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ثلاثة من الدهر، إلا والذي عليه أكثر من الذي له "
