Al-Adab Al-Mufrad — Hadith #47107

Muhammad bin Salam told us, he said: Abdah told us, he said: Muhammad bin Amr told us, he said: Abu Salamah told us, on the authority of Abu Hurairah said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: The generous son of the generous son of the generous son of the generous, Yusuf bin Yaqoub bin Ishaq Ibn Ibrahim, Khalil, the Most Gracious, Blessed and Most High, said: The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: If I had stayed in prison, Joseph would not have stayed. Then the preacher came to me. I would have answered, when the Messenger came to him and said: {Go back to your Lord and ask Him what is the matter with the women who cut off their hands}, And God’s mercy be upon Lot, if he were to take refuge in a harsh corner, when he said to his people: {If only I had strength over you, or could take refuge in a harsh corner. Strong}, and God did not send a prophet after him except with the wealth of his people. Muhammad said: Wealth: abundance and strength.
