عن أبي ذَرّ: كُنْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي حَرَّةِ الْمَدِينَةِ عِشَاءً اسْتَقْبَلَنَا أُحُدٌ فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ أُحُدًا لِي ذَهَبًا يَأْتِي عَلَىَّ لَيْلَةٌ أَوْ ثَلاَثٌ عِنْدِي مِنْهُ دِينَارٌ، إِلاَّ أُرْصِدُهُ لِدَيْنٍ، إِلاَّ أَنْ أَقُولَ بِهِ فِي عِبَادِ اللَّهِ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا‏‏.‏ وَأَرَانَا بِيَدِهِ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ لَبَّيْكَ وَسَعْدَيْكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏.‏ قَالَ: الأَكْثَرُونَ هُمُ الأَقَلُّونَ إِلاَّ مَنْ قَالَ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي: مَكَانَكَ لاَ تَبْرَحْ يَا أَبَا ذَرٍّ حَتَّى أَرْجِعَ‏‏.‏ فَانْطَلَقَ حَتَّى غَابَ عَنِّي، فَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عُرِضَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَذْهَبَ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم: لاَ تَبْرَحْ‏‏.‏ فَمَكُثْتُ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ سَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا خَشِيتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ عُرِضَ لَكَ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرْتُ قَوْلَكَ فَقُمْتُ‏.‏ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: ذَاكَ جِبْرِيلُ أَتَانِي، فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّهُ مَنْ مَاتَ مِنْ أُمَّتِي لاَ يُشْرِكُ بِاللَّهِ شَيْئًا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ‏.‏ قَالَ: وَإِنْ زَنَى وَإِنْ سَرَقَ‏.‏

Hazrat Abu Dharr (ra) narrated: 

“I was walking with the Prophet (sa) at night in [Harrah], the stony plain of Medina, when Mount Uhud came into view before us. He said, ‘O Abu Dharr, I would not like to have gold equal to Uhud and then have a night – or three nights – pass over me while a single dinar of it remained with me, except for what I had set aside to repay a debt. Rather, I would distribute it among the servants of Allah like this, like this and like this.’ He showed us with his hand.

“Then he said, ‘O Abu Dharr.’ I replied, ‘Labbayka wa sa‘dayka, O Allah’s Messenger (sa).’ He said, ‘Those who possess the most will be the least, except those who distribute like this and like this.’

“Then he said to me, ‘Stay where you are, O Abu Dharr, and do not move until I return.’ He went away until he disappeared from my sight. I then heard a sound and feared that something might have happened to Allah’s Messenger (sa), so I intended to go, but then I remembered the words of Allah’s Messenger (sa): ‘Do not move.’ So I remained there.

“I said, ‘O Allah’s Messenger (sa), I heard a sound and feared that something might have happened to you; then I remembered your instruction, so I stayed.’ The Prophet (sa) said, ‘That was Jibril. He came to me and informed me that whoever from my Ummah dies without associating anything with Allah will enter Paradise.’ I said, ‘O Allah’s Messenger (sa), even if he committed adultery and theft?’ He said, ‘Even if he committed adultery and theft.’”

(Sahih al-Bukhari, Kitab al-isti’dhan, Bab man ajaba bi labbayka wa sa‘dayk, Hadith 6268)
