Summary
Malik transmits from Ibn Shihab, from Ata ibn Yazid al-Laythi, from Abu Said al-Khudri (may God be pleased with him), that some of the Ansar asked the Messenger of God ﷺ and he gave them; they asked again and he gave them, until what he had was used up. He said: whatever good I have, I will not withhold from you; whoever seeks to be chaste, God keeps him chaste; whoever seeks sufficiency, God makes him sufficient; whoever seeks patience, God gives him patience; and no one has been given a gift better and more abundant than patience. 1
