Sahih al-Bukhari
Sahih al-Bukhari 2219
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ لِصُهَيْبٍ اتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَلاَ تَدَّعِ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَبِيكَ. فَقَالَ صُهَيْبٌ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا، وَأَنِّي قُلْتُ ذَلِكَ، وَلَكِنِّي سُرِقْتُ وَأَنَا صَبِيٌّ.
Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us: Ghundar narrated to us: Shuba narrated to us, from Sad, from his father, who said: Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf, may Allah be pleased with him, said to Suhayb: “Fear Allah and do not claim descent from anyone other than your father.” Suhayb replied: “It would not please me to have such-and-such wealth and say that. Rather, I was stolen when I was a child.”
Translation notes
Suhayb says he was taken as a child and rejects claiming descent from another father, even for great wealth. The source leaves the amount unspecified.
