قال: فبكى داود (عليه السلام) أربعين صباحا، فأوحى الله عز و جل إلى الحديد أن لن لعبدي داود Muhammad Bin Yaqoub, by his chain from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from Shareef Bin Sabiq, from Al-MufazzAl-Bin Abu Qarat, ‘Abu Abdullah -asws says that Amir-Al-Momineen -asws said: ‘Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto Dawood -as : “You -as are a good servant if only you -as did not consume from the Public Treasury, and worked by your own hands”.
So Dawood -as wept for forty (40) mornings and Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto the iron: “Be soft for My -azwj servant Dawood -as !” فألان الله عز و جل له الحديد، فكان يعمل كل يوم درعا فيبيعها بألف درهم، فعمل ثلاثمائة و ستين درعا، فباعها بثلاثمائة و ستين ألفا، و استغنى عن بيت المال Thus, Allah -azwj Softened the iron for him -as , and he -as used to make armour and sell it for a thousand Dirhams.
So he made three hundred and sixty body armours, and sold these for three hundred and sixty thousand, and became needless from the Public Treasury’.
