Jami at-Tirmidhi 1258 (Book 14, Hadith 59) #26832
The Blessings of Business Dealings

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ blessed a man for his business dealings and he made tremendous profits.

Narrated 'Urwah Al-Bariqi: "The Messenger of Allah gave me on Dinar to purchase a sheep for him. So I purchased two sheep for him, and I sold one of them for a Dinar. So I returned with the sheep and the Dinar to the Prophet , and I mentioned what had happened and he said: 'May Allah bless you in your business dealings'. After that we went to Kunasah in Al-Kufah, and he made tremendous profits. He was among the wealthiest of the people in Al-Kufah".
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَبَّانُ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ هِلاَلٍ أَبُو حَبِيبٍ الْبَصْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ الأَعْوَرُ الْمُقْرِئُ، وَهُوَ ابْنُ مُوسَى الْقَارِئُ حَدَّثَنَا الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ الْخِرِّيتِ، عَنْ أَبِي لَبِيدٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ الْبَارِقِيِّ، قَالَ دَفَعَ إِلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ دِينَارًا لأَشْتَرِيَ لَهُ شَاةً فَاشْتَرَيْتُ لَهُ شَاتَيْنِ فَبِعْتُ إِحْدَاهُمَا بِدِينَارٍ وَجِئْتُ بِالشَّاةِ وَالدِّينَارِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ‏.‏ فَذَكَرَ لَهُ مَا كَانَ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ ‏ "‏ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ فِي صَفْقَةِ يَمِينِكَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَكَانَ يَخْرُجُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ إِلَى كُنَاسَةِ الْكُوفَةِ فَيَرْبَحُ الرِّبْحَ الْعَظِيمَ فَكَانَ مِنْ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ مَالاً

QUICK LESSONS:
Be honest in your business dealings

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the blessings of business dealings. It tells us that when we are honest in our business dealings and do not take advantage of others, Allah will bless us with success. In this hadith, the Prophet (ﷺ) gave 'Urwah Al-Bariqi a Dinar to purchase a sheep for him. Instead of buying one sheep with the money given to him, he bought two and sold one for another Dinar. When he returned to the Prophet (ﷺ), he mentioned what had happened and was blessed by Allah for his honesty in his business dealings. After that they went to Kunasah in Al-Kufah where 'Urwah made tremendous profits from his honest dealing which made him one of the wealthiest people in Al-Kufah. This teaches us that if we are honest in our business dealings then Allah will bless us with success and prosperity as He did with 'Urwah Al-Bariqi.
