Chapter 59 · The Book of Zuhd and Softening of Heartsحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَظِيمِ وَاللَّفْظُ لِإِسْحَقَ قَالَ عَبَّاسٌ حَدَّثَنَا و قَالَ إِسْحَقُ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا بُكَيْرُ بْنُ مِسْمَارٍ حَدَّثَنِي عَامِرُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ قَالَ كَانَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فِي إِبِلِهِ فَجَاءَهُ ابْنُهُ عُمَرُ فَلَمَّا رَآهُ سَعْدٌ قَالَ أَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شَرِّ هَذَا الرَّاكِبِ فَنَزَلَ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَنَزَلْتَ فِي إِبِلِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ وَتَرَكْتَ النَّاسَ يَتَنَازَعُونَ الْمُلْكَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَضَرَبَ سَعْدٌ فِي صَدْرِهِ فَقَالَ اسْكُتْ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْعَبْدَ التَّقِيَّ الْغَنِيَّ الْخَفِيَّ.

Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas رضی اللہ عنہ was in the fold of his camels that his son 'Umar came to him. When Sa'd رضی اللہ عنہ saw him he said: I seek refuge with Allah from the mischief of this rider. And as he got down he said to him: You are busy with your camels and your sheep and you have abandoned people who are contending with one another for kingdom. Sa'd رضی اللہ عنہ struck his chest and said: Keep quite. I heard Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: Allah loves the servant who is God-conscious and is free from want and is hidden (from the view of people).
