The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ الْجُشَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ مَرَرْتُ بِرَجُلٍ فَلَمْ يُقِرْنِي وَلَمْ يُضِفْنِي ثُمَّ مَرَّ بِي بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَأَقْرِيهِ أَمْ أَجْزِيهِ؟ قَالَ: «بل اقره» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
Abul Ahwas al-Jushami quoted his father to the effect that he said, "Messenger of God, tell me, if I come to a man who gives me no entertainment or hospitality and he afterwards comes to me, shall I give him entertainment or treat him as he treated me?" He replied, "No, give him entertainment."
Tirmidhi transmitted it.
