Al-Adab Al-Mufrad, Book 14, Hadith 277 (English) ⓘ

Anas said, "I served the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, for ten years. He never said 'uff' to me and he never said about anything I had not done, 'Why didn't you do it?' or about something I had done. 'Why did you do that?'"

حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ‏:‏ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ‏:‏ خَدَمْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَشْرَ سِنِينَ، فَمَا قَالَ لِي‏:‏ أُفٍّ، قَطُّ، وَمَا قَالَ لِي لِشَيْءٍ لَمْ أَفْعَلْهُ‏:‏ أَلاَ كُنْتَ فَعَلْتَهُ‏؟‏ وَلاَ لِشَيْءٍ فَعَلْتُهُ‏:‏ لِمَ فَعَلْتَهُ‏؟‏‏.‏
