Arabic text

النضر بن سويد عن عاصم عن أبي بصير عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: جائني ملك فقال: يا محمد ربك يقرئك السلام ويقول لك: ان شئت جعلت لك بطحاء مكة رضراض ذهب؟ قال: فرفع النبي صلى الله عليه وآله رأسه إلى السماء فقال: يا رب أشبع يوما فاحمدك وأجوع يوما فأسئلك.

Translation

19.Al-Naḍr ibn Suwayd narrated from ʿĀṣim, from Abū Baṣīr, from Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, “The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) said, ‘An angel came and told me, “O Muḥammad, your Lord sends you greetings and says to you: If you wish, I will turn the plains of Makkah into nuggets of gold [for you].”’ So the Prophet (ṣ) raised his head to the sky and said, ‘O Lord, I am sated one day so I praise You, and I am hungry another day so I implore You [and that is enough for me].’”
