Sahih Muslim Book - 36, Hadith - 5349
حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَرِّ الظَّهْرَانِ ، وَنَحْنُ نَجْنِي الْكَبَاثَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : عَلَيْكُمْ بِالأَسْوَدِ مِنْهُ ، قَالَ : فَقُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، كَأَنَّكَ رَعَيْتَ الْغَنَمَ ، قَالَ : نَعَمْ ، وَهَلْ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلاَّ وَقَدْ رَعَاهَا ، أَوْ نَحْوَ هَذَا مِنَ الْقَوْلِ.
It was narrated that Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: "We were with the Prophet (s.a.w) in Marr Az-Zahran and we were picking the fruit of the arak tree. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: 'You should choose the black ones.' We said: 'O Messenger of Allah, it is as if you once tended sheep.' He said: 'Yes. Was there any Prophet who did not tend sheep?' or words to that effect.''

"The best of what a man leaves behind are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, ongoing charity the reward of which reaches him, and knowledge that is acted upon after him."
Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
