Sunan Ibn Majah #1571

The Chapters Regarding Zakat

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏"‏ مَنْ يَتَقَبَّلُ لِي بِوَاحِدَةٍ وَأَتَقَبَّلُ لَهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ‏"‏ قُلْتُ أَنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ تَسْأَلِ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَكَانَ ثَوْبَانُ يَقَعُ سَوْطُهُ وَهُوَ رَاكِبٌ فَلاَ يَقُولُ لأَحَدٍ نَاوِلْنِيهِ حَتَّى يَنْزِلَ فَيَأْخُذَهُ ‏.‏
Thawban said: “The Messenger of Allah said: 'Who will commit himself to one thing, I will guarantee him paradise?' I said: 'I will.' He said: 'Do not ask people for anything.' So Thawban would drop his whip while he was on his mount, and he would not say to anyone: 'Get that for me' rather he would dismount and grab it.”
Narrated by Abdur-Rahman bin Yazid narrated that:

Context

This hadith recounts a conversation between the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) and Thawban, where the Prophet (ﷺ) promised paradise to anyone who refrains from asking others for help. Thawban exemplified this teaching by refusing to ask for assistance, even when it meant dismounting to retrieve his whip. This illustrates the value of self-reliance and dignity.

Modern Application

In contemporary life, this principle encourages individuals to cultivate independence and self-sufficiency. By striving to solve our own problems and not relying on others unnecessarily, we can foster a sense of personal responsibility and resilience.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Good Deeds and Trustworthiness because it highlights the virtues of self-reliance and the commitment to uphold one's dignity without burdening others.
