Chapter 213: The person who builds

بَابُ مَنْ بَنَى

Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 456

'Abdullah ibn 'Amr said, "The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went by while I was repairing a hut I owned. He said, 'What is this?' I replied, 'I am mending my hut, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.' He said, 'The business is too swift for that.'"

حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو السَّفَرِ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ‏:‏ مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَأَنَا أُصْلِحُ خُصًّا لَنَا، فَقَالَ‏:‏ مَا هَذَا‏؟‏ قُلْتُ‏:‏ أُصْلِحُ خُصَّنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَقَالَ‏:‏ الأَمْرُ أَسْرَعُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ‏.‏
