10ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) وَهُوَ يُرِيدُ بَعْضَ غَزَوَاتِهِ فَأَخَذَ بِغَرْزِ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ الله عَلِّمْنِي عَمَلاً أَدْخُلُ بِهِ الْجَنَّةَ فَقَالَ مَا أَحْبَبْتَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْكَ فَأْتِهِ إِلَيْهِمْ وَمَا كَرِهْتَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ النَّاسُ إِلَيْكَ فَلا تَأْتِهِ إِلَيْهِمْ خَلِّ سَبِيلَ الرَّاحِلَةِ.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

10. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Yahya ibn Ibrahim ibn abu al-Bilad from his father from his grandfather, abu al- Bilad in a marfu’ manner saying: “Once an Arab man came to the Holy Prophet when he was about to leave for an armed campaign. The Arab held on to the harness of the horse of the Holy Prophet and said, ‘O Messenger of Allah, teach me a deed with which I can go to paradise.’ He said, ‘Do to people what you like them to do to you, and do not do anything to people that you do not like to be done to you. Now allow the horse to go.’”
