عَجِبْتُ لِرَجُلٍ يَأْتِيهِ أَخُوهُ الْمُسْلِمُ فِي حَاجَةٍ فَيَمْتَنِعُ عَنْ قَضَائِهَا وَلَا يَرَى نَفْسَهُ لِلْخَيْرِ أَهْلًا فَهَبْ أَنَّهُ لَا ثَوَابَ يُرْجَى وَلَا عِقَابَ يُتَّقَى أَ فَتَزْهَدُونَ فِي مَكَارِمِ الْأَخْلَاقِ
I am amazed at the person who is approached by his Muslim brother in need and refuses to fulfil it, not deeming himself worthy of [doing] good; so assume that he does not desire any reward nor does he fear any punishmentDo they lack interest in [acquiring] noble traits?
