Abu Harb b. Abu al-Aswad reported on the authority of his father that Abu Musa al-Ash'ari sent for the reciters of Basra. They came to him and they were three hundred in number. They recited the Qur'an and he said: You are the best among the inhabitants of Basra, for you are the reciters among them. So continue to recite it. (But bear in mind) that your reciting for a long time may not harden your hearts as were hardened the hearts of those before you. We used to recite a surah which resembled in length and severity to (Surah) Bara'at. I have, however, forgotten it with the exception of this which I remember out of it: If there were two valleys full of riches, for the son of Adam, he would long for a third valley, and nothing would fill the stomach of the son of Adam but dust. And we used so recite a surah which resembled one of the surahs of Musabbihat, and I have forgotten it, but remember (this much) out of it: Oh people who believe, why do you say that which you do not practise (lxi 2.) and that is recorded in your necks as a witness (against you) and you would be asked about it on the Day of Resurrection (xvii. 13).
حَدَّثَنِي سُوَيْدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ عَنْ دَاوُدَ عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ بَعَثَ أَبُو مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيُّ إِلَى قُرَّاءِ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ ثَلَاثُ مِائَةِ رَجُلٍ قَدْ قَرَءُوا الْقُرْآنَ فَقَالَ أَنْتُمْ خِيَارُ أَهْلِ الْبَصْرَةِ وَقُرَّاؤُهُمْ فَاتْلُوهُ وَلَا يَطُولَنَّ عَلَيْكُمْ الْأَمَدُ فَتَقْسُوَ قُلُوبُكُمْ كَمَا قَسَتْ قُلُوبُ مَنْ كَانَ قَبْلَكُمْ وَإِنَّا كُنَّا نَقْرَأُ سُورَةً كُنَّا نُشَبِّهُهَا فِي الطُّولِ وَالشِّدَّةِ بِبَرَاءَةَ فَأُنْسِيتُهَا غَيْرَ أَنِّي قَدْ حَفِظْتُ مِنْهَا لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ وَكُنَّا نَقْرَأُ سُورَةً كُنَّا نُشَبِّهُهَا بِإِحْدَى الْمُسَبِّحَاتِ فَأُنْسِيتُهَا غَيْرَ أَنِّي حَفِظْتُ مِنْهَا يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لِمَ تَقُولُونَ مَا لَا تَفْعَلُونَ فَتُكْتَبُ شَهَادَةً فِي أَعْنَاقِكُمْ فَتُسْأَلُونَ عَنْهَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
  ابو حرب بن ابی اسود کے والد سے روایت ہے انھوں نے کہا : حضرت ابو موسیٰ اشعری رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے اہل بصرہ کے قاریوں کی طرف ( انھیں بلا نے کے لیے قاصد ) بھیجا تو ان کے ہاں تین سو آدی آئے جو قرآن پڑھ چکے تھے تو انھوں ( ابو موسیٰ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ ) نے کہا : تم اہل بصرہ کے بہترین لو گ اور ان کے قاری ہو اس کی تلا وت کرتے رہا کرو تم پر لمبی مدت ( کا وقفہ ) نہ گزرے کہ تمھا رے دل سخت ہو جا ئیں جس طرح ان کے دل سخت ہو گئے تھے جو تم سے پہلے تھے ہم ایک سورت پڑھا کرتے تھے جسے ہم لمبا ئی اور ( ڈرا نے کی ) شدت میں ( سورہ ) براۃ تشبیہ دیا کرتے تو وہ مجھے بھلا دی گئی اس کے سوا کہ اس کا یہ ٹکڑا مجھے یا د رہ گیا آگر آدم کے بیٹے کے پاس مال کی دو وادیا ہوں تو وہ تیسری وادی کا متلا شی ہو گا اور ابن آدم کا پیٹ تو مٹی کے سوا کو ئی شے نہیں بھرتی ۔ ہم ایک اور سورت پڑھا کرتے تھے جس کو ہم تسبیح والی سورتوں میں سے ایک سورت سے تشبیہ دیا کرتے تھے وہ بھی مجھے بھلا دی گئی ہاں اس میں سے مجھے یہ یا د ہے " اے ایمان والو! وہ بات کہتے کیوں ہو جو کرتے نہیں وہ بطور شہادت تمھا ری گردنوں میں لکھ دی جا ئے گی اور قیامت کے دن تم سے اس کے بارے میں سوال کیا جا ئے گا ۔

sahih-muslim-2421

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) stood up and addressed the people thus: O people, by Allah, I do not entertain fear about you in regard to anything else than that which Allah would bring forth for you in the form of adornment of the world. A person said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) remained silent for a while and he then said: What did you say? He replied: Messenger of Allah, I said: Does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said to him: The good does not produce but good. but among the plants the spring rain produces There some which kill with a tremour or nearly kill all but the animal which feeds on vegetation. It eats and when its flanks are distended, it faces the can. then when it has donged or urinated and chewed it returns and eats. He who accepts wealth rightly, Allah confers blessing on it for him. and he who takes wealth without any right, he is like one who eats and is not satisfied.

sahih-muslim-2422

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) had said: The most dreadful thing I fear in your case is what Allah brings forth for you in the form of the adornment of the world. They (the Prophet's Companions) said: Messenger of Allah, what is the adornment of the world? He said: Blessings (the natural resources) of the earth. They (again) said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? He said: No, only good comes out of good. No, only good comes out of good. No. only good comes out of good. All that which the spring rain helps to grow kills or is about to kill but (the animal) which feeds on vegetation. It eats and when its flanks are distended, it faces the sun, it chews the cud, it has dunged and urinated. it returns and eats. This wealth is green and sweet, and he who accepts it and applies it rightly, finds it a good help, but he who takes it wrongfully is like one who eats without being satisfied.

sahih-muslim-2423

Abu Said al-Khudri reported: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) was sitting on the pulpit and we were sitting around him, and he said: What I am afraid of in regard to you after my death is that there would be opened for you the adornments of the world and its beauties. A person said: Messenger of Allah, does good produce evil? The Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) remained silent. And it was said to him (the man who had asked the question from the Holy Prophet): What Is the matter with you, that you speak with the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) but he does not speak with you? We thought as if revelation was descending upon him. He regained himself and wiped the sweat from him and said: He was the inquirer (and his style of expression showed as if he praised him and then added): Verily good does not produce evil. Whatever the spring rainfall causes to grow kills or is about to kill, but that (animal) which feeds on vegetation. It eats till its flanks are filled; it faces the sun and dungs and urinates. and then returns to eat. And this Wealth is a sweet vegetation, and it is a good companion for a Muslim who gives out of it to the needy, to the orphan. to the wayfarer, or something like that as the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: He who takes it without his right is like one who eats but does not feel satisfied, and it would stand witness against him on the Day of judgment.

sahih-muslim-2424

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that some people from among the Ansar begged from the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and he gave them. They again begged him and he again gave them, till when what was in his possession was exhausted he said: Whatever good (riches, goods) I have, I will not withhold it from you. He who refrains from begging Allah safeguards him against want. and he who seeks sufficiency, Allah would keep him in a state of sufficiency, and he who shows endurance. Allah would grant him power to endure, and none is blessed with an endowment better and greater than endurance.
