Chapter 43 · General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab)حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَهَنَّادٌ الْمَعْنَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ بِإِسْنَادِهِ بِهَذَا، قَالَ: مَرَّ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ نُعَالِجُ خُصًّا لَنَا وَهَى، فَقَالَ: مَا هَذَا ؟، فَقُلْنَا: خُصٌّ لَنَا وَهَى فَنَحْنُ نُصْلِحُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَا أَرَى الْأَمْرَ إِلَّا أَعْجَلَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم came upon me when we were repairing our cottage that was broken. He asked: What is this? We replied: This cottage of ours has broken and we are repairing it. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم said: I see that the command is quicker than that.
