35) Chapter: The superiority of the Maniha
Narrated Abu Sa`id:
A bedouin came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and asked him about emigration. The Prophet (ﷺ)
said to him, "May Allah be merciful to you. The matter of emigration is difficult. Have you got some
camels?" He replied in the affirmative. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, "Do you pay their Zakat?" He replied
in the affirmative. He asked, "Do you lend them so that their milk may be utilized by others?" The
bedouin said, "Yes." The Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Do you milk them on the day off watering them?" He
replied, "Yes." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do good deeds beyond the merchants (or the sea) and Allah will
never disregard any of your deeds." (See Hadith No. 260, Vol. 5)

وَقَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي عَطَاءُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْهِجْرَةِ، فَقَالَ " وَيْحَكَ إِنَّ الْهِجْرَةَ شَأْنُهَا شَدِيدٌ فَهَلْ لَكَ مِنْ إِبِلٍ " قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ " فَتُعْطِي صَدَقَتَهَا ". قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ " فَهَلْ تَمْنَحُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا ". قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ " فَتَحْلُبُهَا يَوْمَ وِرْدِهَا ". قَالَ نَعَمْ. قَالَ " فَاعْمَلْ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْبِحَارِ، فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَنْ يَتِرَكَ مِنْ عَمَلِكَ شَيْئًا ".
