Sayyidina Abu Sa’eed narrated: Some people of the Ansar requested the Prophet (SAW) for something which he gave them. They asked again, and he gave it to them. He said thereafter, ‘If I had anything of value, I would not conceal it from you. He who is independent, Allah makes him free of want and him who refrains from begging, Allah saves him from having to beg, and he who is accustomed to patience, Allah enables him to show patience. And no one is given anything better and more encompassing than patience.’
[Bukhari 1469, Muslim 1053]
