Volume 9, Book 93, Number 626:
Narrated Al-Hasan:
‘Amr bin Taghlib said, “Some property was given to the Prophet and he gave it to some people and
withheld it from some others. Then he came to know that they (the latter) were dissatisfied. So the
Prophet said, ‘I give to one man and leave (do not give) another, and the one to whom I do not give is
dearer to me than the one to whom I give. I give to some people because of the impatience and dis –
content present in their hearts, and leave other people because of the content and goodness Allah has
bestowed on them, and one of them is ‘Amr bin Taghlib.” ‘Amr bin Taghlib said, “The sentence which
Allah’s Apostle said in my favor is dearer to me than the possession of nice red camels.”
