Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَعْمَشُ عَنْ الْمَعْرُورِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَالِسًا فِي ظِلِّ الْكَعْبَةِ قَالَ فَأَقْبَلْتُ فَلَمَّا رَآنِي قَالَ هُمْ الْأَخْسَ
رُونَ وَرَبِّ الْكَعْبَةِ فَجَلَسْتُ فَلَمْ أَتَقَارَّ أَنْ قُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَقُلْتُ مَنْ هُمْ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي قَالَ هُمْ الْأَكْثَرُونَ مَالًا إِلَّا مَنْ قَالَ بِالْمَالِ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَقَلِيلٌ مَا هُمْ

English Translation
It was narrated from Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet دلوالله was walking and Abu Dharr was with him. He said: "The most wealthy will be the lowest on the Day of Resurrection, except those who give generously from their wealth in every direction." Abu Dharr asked: "Who are they, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "They are those with the most wealth, except those who spend it saying: 'Like this and like this and like this.' And they are few."
