adab 14 Excellence in Character كتاب حسن الخلق 19

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: خَدَمْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَشْرَ سِنِينَ، فَمَا قَالَ لِي: أُفٍّ، قَطُّ، وَمَا قَالَ لِي لِشَيْءٍ لَمْ أَفْعَلْهُ: أَلاَ كُنْتَ فَعَلْتَهُ؟ وَلاَ لِشَيْءٍ فَعَلْتُهُ: لِمَ فَعَلْتَهُ؟.

Anas said, “I served the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, for ten years. He never said ‘uff’ to me and he never questioned me about anything I had not done, asking, ‘Why didn’t you do it?’ or questioned me about something I had done, asking ‘Why did you do that?’”
