Hadith #15076
قال عبادة بن الوليد: قلت له: يا عمي! لو أخذتَ رداءَ عبدك المخططَ وأعطيته رداءَ غفرانك، أو أخذتَ رداءَ غفرانه منه وأعطيته رداءَه المخططَ، لكان لكَ زوجٌ على جسدك وله زوجٌ على جسده. فمرر يده على رأسي وقال: اللهم صلِّ عليه. يا ابن أخي! رأت عيناي رسولَ الله ﷺ وسمعته أذناي. وأشار إلى موضع قلبي وقال: تذكره قلبي وهو يقول: «أطعموهم مما تأكلون، والبسوهم مما تلبسون». ولو أعطيته من فضل الدنيا لكان عليَّ أسهل من أن يأخذ مني حسناتي يوم القيامة.
(Ubadah ibn Walid) said: I said to him: Uncle! If you had taken the striped cloak of your slave and given him your cloak of forgiveness, or taken his cloak of forgiveness from him and given him his striped cloak, you would have had a pair on your body and he would have had a pair on his body. He passed his hand over my head and said: O Allah! Bless him. O nephew! My eyes saw the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and my ears heard him and. Pointing to the place of my heart, he said: My heart remembered him, while he was saying: "Feed them (slaves) from what you eat and clothe them from what you wear." If I had given him (his share) of the blessings of this world, it would have been easier for me than for him to take away my good deeds on the Day of Resurrection.
