Chapter 308 | The meaning of the saying of the Commander of the Believers, peace be upon him: «None rejects generosity except for a donkey»
أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن علي ابن ميسرة، عن أبي زيد المكي قال: سمعت أبا الحسن عليه السلام يقول: لا يأبى الكرامة إلا حمار يعني بذلك الطيب والوسادة.
3. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, from Ali ibn Maysara, from Abu Ziyad al-Makki, that he said: I heard Abu’l-Hasan, peace be upon him, say: None rejects generosity except for a donkey. By that he meant (that one is offered) perfume and a pillow.
