The Distinction of Imam Bukhari (Rahimahullaah)

 

Sincerity in worldly Affairs

 

Bukharis son sent him some merchandise to sell and some businessmen requested to buy it for five thousand Dirhams, so Bukhari said:

 

Leave it tonight.


The next day some other businessmen came and requested to buy it for ten thousand, so Bukhari said to them:

 

Indeed I had made the intention to sell it to those who came last night and I do not love to change my intention.

 

[Collected in ‘Tareekh Baghdad 2/11]

 

May Allaah Ta’ala have Mercy on al-Bukhari & his Parents
