3. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, from Ali ibn Maysara, from Abu Ziyad al-Makki, that he said
I heard Abu’l-Hasan, peace be upon him, say: None rejects generosity except for a donkey. By that he meant (that one is offered) perfume and a pillow.
أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن علي ابن ميسرة، عن أبي زيد المكي قال
سمعت أبا الحسن عليه السلام يقول: لا يأبى الكرامة إلا حمار يعني بذلك الطيب والوسادة.
