Hadith of Sakhr al-Ghamidi (RA)

من حديث صخر الغامدي

Hadith 65:1

Muhammad ibn Ja‘far narrated to us, Shu‘bah narrated to us, from Ya‘la ibn ‘Ata’, from ‘Umarah ibn Hadid al-Bajali, from Sakhr al-Ghamidi, from the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that he said: "O Allah, bless my nation in their early mornings." He said: So the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, whenever he sent a military detachment, he would send it at the beginning of the day. And Sakhr was a merchant man, and he would not send his servants except at the beginning of the day, so his wealth increased until he did not know where to place his wealth.

حدثنا محمد بن جعفر، حدثنا شعبة، عن يعلى بن عطاء، عن عمارة بن حديد البجلي، عن صخر الغامدي، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم أنه قال: " اللهم بارك لأمتي في بكورهم " قال: فكان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا بعث سرية بعثها أول النهار، وكان صخر رجلا تاجرا، وكان لا يبعث غلمانه إلا من أول النهار، فكثر ماله حتى كان لا يدري أين يضع ماله
