أَخْبَرَنِي الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، وَسَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، أَنَّ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " يَا حَكِيمُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ حُلْوَةٌ فَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِسَخَاوَةِ نَفْسٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ وَكَانَ كَالَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَلاَ يَشْبَعُ وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى " . قَالَ حَكِيمٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لاَ أَرْزَأُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ حَتَّى أُفَارِقَ الدُّنْيَا بِشَىْءٍ .
Al-Rabi ibn Sulayman ibn Dawud informed me: Ishaq ibn Bakr narrated to us: My father narrated to me, from Amr ibn al-Harith, from Ibn Shihab, from Urwah ibn al-Zubayr and Saeed ibn al-Musayyib, that Hakim ibn Hizam said: I asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he gave me something. Then I asked him, and he gave me something. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: O Hakim, this wealth is sweet. Whoever takes it with a generous, contented disposition will be blessed in it. Whoever takes it covetously will not be blessed in it; he will be like one who eats but is never satisfied. The upper hand is better than the lower hand. Hakim said: I said: O Messenger of Allah, by the One who sent you with the truth, I will not take anything from anyone after you until I leave this world.
Translation notes
The chain names both Urwah ibn al-Zubayr and Saeed ibn al-Musayyib. Hakim closing pledge is retained without narrowing its scope.
