Sahih al-Bukhari 2074
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ، مَوْلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " لأَنْ يَحْتَطِبَ أَحَدُكُمْ حُزْمَةً عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ أَحَدًا، فَيُعْطِيَهُ أَوْ يَمْنَعَهُ ".
Yahya ibn Bukayr narrated to us: al-Layth narrated to us, from Uqayl, from Ibn Shihab, from Abu Ubayd, the freedman of Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf, who heard Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “For one of you to gather a bundle of firewood on his back is better than asking someone, who may give to him or refuse him.”
