Abū Bakr ibn Abī Shaybah narrated to us: Yazīd ibn Hārūn informed us: Ḥarīz ibn ʿUthmān informed us: ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Maysarah narrated to me, from Jubayr ibn Nufayr, from Busr ibn Jaḥḥāsh al-Qurashī, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, spat into his palm, then pointed to it with his index finger and said: “God, Mighty and Majestic, says: How can you thwart Me, son of Adam, when I created you from something like this? When your soul reaches this”—and he pointed to his throat—“you say that you will give charity. But how can there be time for charity then?”
