Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ أَخْبَرَنَا شَرِيكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَيَّ شَمْلَةٌ أَوْ شَمْلَتَانِ فَقَالَ لِي هَلْ لَكَ مِنْ مَالٍ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَدْ آتَانِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْ كُلِّ مَالِهِ مِنْ خَ
يْلِهِ وَإِبِلِهِ وَغَنَمِهِ وَرَقِيقِهِ فَقَالَ فَإِذَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَلْيَرَ عَلَيْكَ نِعْمَتَهُ فَرُحْتُ إِلَيْهِ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ وَمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ فَغَدَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ فِي حُلَّةٍ حَمْرَاءَ

English Translation
Yazīd narrated to us: Sharīk ibn ʿAbdillāh informed us, from Abū Isḥāq, from Abū al-Aḥwaṣ, from his father, he said: I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wearing a shabby cloak — or two shabby cloaks. He said to me: 'Do you have wealth?' I said: 'Yes, Allah عز وجل has given me of all kinds of wealth — horses, camels, sheep, and slaves.' He said: 'When Allah gives you wealth, let His blessing be seen upon you.' So I went to him [next time] in a fine suit. Aswad ibn ʿĀmir narrated to us: Sharīk narrated to us — and he mentioned it with its chain and meaning — he said: 'So I came to him in a red suit.'
