The conversation is in Arabic, so here is the Transcript below:
Some Men in a car testing the trust of a sheep herder in the desert.
Men: Will you sell us one?
Shepherd: No, no, no...
Men: Why?
Shepherd: this is not mine to sell
Men: ok just give us one..
Shepherd:How can I give you something that's not mine?
Men: Nothing wrong with it, just tell the owner it got lost..
Shepherd:I tell him that it got lost? isn't that haraam?
does the shibr(grave) have the excuse 'lost', when they put you later in the shibr
Men: What is shibr?
Shepherd:the grave, does it have something called 'it got lost'?
there is nothing called, 'it got lost'
Men: you mean there is accountability there?
Shepherd:By Allah, its a difficult accountability
Men: what do you think when your herding, do you feel comfortable?
while you walk with the sheep, do you feel comfortable and happy?
Shepherd:I feel comfortable alhamdulillah
Whoever earns by halaal means is comfortable alhamdulillah
Men: ok, just give us one(sheep)...
may Allah have mercy on your parents
Shepherd:no, its just like the sky stepping on the earth
Men: how?
Shepherd:like the sky stepping on the earth
the sky and the earth, are they close to each other?
Men: no
Shepherd:then I will not give you my sheep
Wallah.
if I have to give you my sheep then the sky and earth must close together first. It means that is impossible, it is impossible for the sky and earth to come together, right?
Men: We will give you 200 riyals.
Shepherd:By Allah, even if you give me 200,000 riyal..
I swear by Allah, By the Lord of the Ka'aba
for 200,000 I won't give it to you
Men: why? nobody sees you here.
Shepherd:what?
Men: I say nobody sees you here and we won't tell anyone.
Shepherd:Allah... does he sees me?
Men: He sees you of course
Shepherd:Then that's it.
Who is going to hold me accountable, you or my Lord?

Speaker:
Ibn Umar passed by a sheep herder in desert, so said to test him,
'Sell us from those'
The sheep herder said, 'I am owned by someone and entrusted'
So ibn Umar said to test his faith, 'Tell the owner that the wolf had eaten it.'
The sheep herder, whose heart was filled with the fear of Allah, replied,
' And what will I say to Allah?
And what will i say to Allah if I told the owner that a wolf ate it?
So what will I say to Allah? What will I say, when my parts and limbs speak?'
So ibn Umar cried and he sent a person to set him free and he said to him,
'A word that has set you free in this world... A word that has set you free in this world...
I ask Allah that it sets you free on the Day you meet Him.'
