My father gave me a gift. The narrator Isma'il b. Salim said: (He gave me) his slave as a gift. My mother 'Umrah daughter of Rawahah said: Go to the Messenger of Allah and call him as witness. He then came to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned it to him. He said him: I have given my son al-Nu'man a gift, and 'Umrah has asked me to call you as witness to it. He asked him: Have you children other than him? He said: I replied: Yes. He again asked: Have you given the rest of them the same as you have given al-Nu'man ? He said: No. Some of these narrators said in their version (that the Prophet said:) This in injustice. The others said in their version (that the Prophet said:) This is under force. So call some other person than me as witness to it. Mughirah said in his version: (The Prophet asked): Are you not pleased with the fact that all of them may be equal in virtue and grace ? He replied: Yes. He said: Then call some other person than me as witness to it. Mujahid mentioned in his version: They have right to you that you should do justice to them, as you have right to them that they should do good to you. Abu Dawud said: In the version of al-Zuhri some (narrators) said: (Have you given) to all your sons ? and some (narrators) said: Your children. Ibn Abi Khalid narrated from al-Sha'bi in his version: Have your sons other than him ? Abu al-Duha narrated on the authority of al-Nu'man b. Bashir: Have you children other than him ?

[Machine] His mother was 'Umrah bint Rawahah, so he came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and bore witness to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and mentioned that to him, so he said, "I have given my son Nu'man a portion, and 'Umrah asked me to bear witness to you regarding this." He said, "Do you have any other children besides him?" I said, "Yes." He said, "Have you given all of them the same as you have given Nu'man?" I said, "No." He said, "Some of these innovators say, 'This is injustice,' and some of them say, 'This is preference, bear witness to others regarding this.'" Mujirah said, "Is it not pleasing to you that they treat you with fairness and kindness equally?" He said, "Yes." He said, "Then bear witness to others regarding this." And Mujalid mentioned in his narration, "They have a right over you to treat them equally as you have a right over them that they show you kindness."
