Chapter: The Prophet (saws) inviting his followers to Tauhid of Allah

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ، قَالَ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مَالٌ فَأَعْطَى قَوْمًا وَمَنَعَ آخَرِينَ فَبَلَغَهُ أَنَّهُمْ عَتَبُوا فَقَالَ ‏ “‏ إِنِّي أُعْطِي الرَّجُلَ وَأَدَعُ الرَّجُلَ، وَالَّذِي أَدَعُ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنَ الَّذِي أُعْطِي، أُعْطِي أَقْوَامًا لِمَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنَ الْجَزَعِ وَالْهَلَعِ، وَأَكِلُ أَقْوَامًا إِلَى مَا جَعَلَ اللَّهُ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنَ الْغِنَى وَالْخَيْرِ مِنْهُمْ عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ ‏” ‏‏.‏ فَقَالَ عَمْرٌو مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي بِكَلِمَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ‏.‏

Narrated Al-Hasan: `Amr bin Taghlib said, “Some property was given to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he gave it to some people and
withheld it from some others. Then he came to know that they (the latter) were dissatisfied. So the
Prophet said, ‘I give to one man and leave (do not give) another, and the one to whom I do not give is
dearer to me than the one to whom I give. I give to some people because of the impatience and
discontent present in their hearts, and leave other people because of the content and goodness Allah
has bestowed on them, and one of them is `Amr bin Taghlib.” `Amr bin Taghlib said, “The sentence
which Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said in my favor is dearer to me than the possession of nice red camels.”
