ahmad:20524ʿAbd al-Wahhāb b. ʿAbd al-Majīd al-Thaqafī > Ayyūb > Muḥammad Fadhakar Qiṣṣah Fīhā

[Machine] When Abdullah arrived, he was given the choice between thirty thousand (pieces) of silver and a set of dishes. He chose the dishes. He then met some traders from my town and sold the dishes to them for ten thousand (pieces) of silver. He later met Abu Bakrah and said to him, "Did you not see how I deceived them?" Abu Bakrah asked, "How?" Abdullah then told him about it. Abu Bakrah said, "I made up my mind to retrieve them from you, or I swore (an oath) that you would return them because I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbidding such deceit."
