Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ الْحَبْحَابِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْوَازِعِ جَابِرًا الرَّاسِبِيَّ ذَكَرَ أَنَّ أَبَا بَرْزَةَ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي لَعَسَى أَنْ تَمْضِيَ وَأَبْقَى بَعْدَكَ فَحَدِّثْنِي بِشَيْءٍ يَنْفَعُنِي اللَّهُ بِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ افْعَلْ كَذَا افْعَلْ كَذَا أَنَا نَسِيتُ ذَلِكَ وَأَمِزْ الْأَذَى عَنْ الطَّرِيقِ.
English Translation
Hasan ibn Musa narrated to us, Abu Bakr — meaning Ibn Shuayb ibn al-Habhab — narrated to us, saying: I heard Abu al-Wazi Jabir al-Rasibi mention that Abu Barzah narrated to him, saying: I asked the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I do not know — perhaps you will pass away and I will remain after you, so tell me something by which Allah may benefit me.' The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said to him: 'Do such-and-such, do such-and-such' — I have forgotten that — 'and remove harmful things from the road.'
