(…/২৩০৯) আনাস (রাযিঃ) বলেন, আল্লাহর শপথ আমি নয় বছর তার সেবায় ছিলাম, কিন্তু আমার জানা নেই, কোন কাজ আমি করেছি সে ব্যাপারে বলেননি এরূপ কেন করলে কিংবা কোন কাজ করিনি, সে ব্যাপারে বলেননি, কেন অমুক অমুক কাজ করলে না? (ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন ৫৮০৯, ইসলামিক সেন্টার, নেই)
Anas reported that Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) had the best disposition amongst people. He sent me on an errand one day, and I said:By Allah, I would not go. I had, however, this idea in my mind that I would do as Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) had commanded me to do. I went out until I happened to come across children who had been playing in the street. In the meanwhile, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came there and he caught me by the back of my neck from behind me. As I looked towards him I found him smiling and he said: Unais, did you go where I commanded you to go? I said: Allah's Messenger, yes, I am going. Anas further said: I served him for nine years but I know not that he ever said to me about a thing which I had done why I did that, or about a thing I had left as to why I had not done that
