![Modesty, Self-Sufficiency & Patience – Dr. Saleh as-Saleh [Short Clip|En]](https://www.purposeofcreation.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/for-Modesty-Self-Sufficiency-Patience.jpg)
Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that:
Certain people of the Ansar asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he gave them; then they again asked him and he gave them until all what he possessed was exhausted. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said,
“Whatever wealth I have, I will not withhold from you.
Whosoever would be chaste and modest; Allah will keep him chaste and modest and
whosoever would seek self-sufficiency, Allah will make him self-sufficient; and
whosoever would be patient, Allah will give him patience, and no one is granted a gift better and more comprehensive than patience”.
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
وعن أبي سعيد سعد بن مالك بن سنان الخدري رضي الله عنهما: ”أن ناساً من الأنصار سألوا رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فأعطاهم، ثم سألوه فأعطاهم ، حتى نفد ما عنده، فقال لهم حين أنفق كل شيء بيده : ”ما يكن عندي من خير فلن أدخره عنكم ، ومن يستعفف يعفه الله، ومن يستغن يغنه الله، ومن يتصبر يصبره الله. وما أعطي أحد عطاءً خيراً وأوسع من الصبر” ((متفق عليه)) .
