Imaam Ahmad (rahimahullaah) recorded a narration from Malik bin Nadlah (radi Allahu ‘anhu) who said,

“I came to Allaah’s Messenger while in filthy clothes.

He said,

«هَلْ لَكَ مَالٌ»

Do you have wealth?

I answered, ‘Yes.’ He said,

«مِنْ أَيِّ الْمَالِ»

What kind of wealth?

I answered, ‘All kinds: camels, slaves, horses, sheep.’ So he said,

«إِذَا آَتَاكَ اللَّهُ مَالًا فَلْيُرَ عَلَيْك»

If Allaah gives you wealth, then let it be seen on you.
