عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ خَالِدٍ قَالَ فِيمَا أَظُنُّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ رُئِيَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَسْقِي حِمَاراً بِالرَّبَذَةِ فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ النَّاسِ أَ مَا لَكَ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَنْ يَكْفِيكَ سَقْيَ الْحِمَارِ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ دَابَّةٍ إِلَّا وَ هِيَ تَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ كُلَّ صَبَاحٍ اللَّهُمَّ ارْزُقْنِي مَلِيكاً صَالِحاً يُشْبِعُنِي مِنَ الْعَلَفِ وَ يُرْوِينِي مِنَ الْمَاءِ وَ لَا يُكَلِّفُنِي فَوْقَ طَاقَتِي فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَسْقِيَهُ بِنَفْسِي .
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from abu al-Mighra’ from Sulayman ibn Khalid who has said the following as I thing from abu ‘Abd Allah : “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said that abu Dharr was seen offering water to a donkey at al- Rabadhah and certain people said to him, ‘O abu Dharr do you not have someone who can offer water to your donkey?’ He said, ‘I once heard the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, saying, “Every stumper asks Allah every morning, ‘O Lord, grant me an owner who will feed me sufficiently of feed, offer me water, will not load me more than my power.’” For this reason I personally offer it water.’”
