Hadith 34

A man came over to the Prophet-saww, so he said: ‘I am an old man with a lot of dependants, weak of health, with few things. So, is there an assistance upon my time? ’ Rasool-Allah-saww looked at his-saww companions, and his-saww companions looked at him-saww and he-saww said, ‘He made us-saww to hear the speech, and made you all to hear it’. A man stood up and he said, ‘I was like you yesterday’. He went away with him to his house and gave him an ingot, and they used to be trading with the ingot, and it was the gold and the silver. The old man said, ‘This is all of it (for me)? ’ He said, ‘Yes’. So the old man said, ‘I accept your ingot, and I am neither a jinn nor a human, but I am a messenger from Allah-azwj to test you, so you have been found to be grateful. May Allah-azwj Recompense you goodly’’. [35]
