32. Gifts
٣٢۔ كِتَابُ الْهِبَاتِ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ entered and a loaf of bread and a piece of meat were brought to him. He said, "Did I not see a bone for the meat?" She said, "That is something she believes about Barirah." He said, "It is a charity for her, and it is a gift for us." They brought it out in Sahih Hadith from the narration of Malik.
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ دَخَلَ فَقَرَّبَتْ خُبْزًا وَأُدْمَ الْبَيْتِ فَقَالَ أَلَمْ أَرَ بُرْمَةَ لَحْمٍ؟ فَقَالَتْ ذَلِكَ شَيْءٌ تُصِدِّقَ بِهِ عَلَى بَرِيرَةَ فَقَالَ هُوَ لَهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ لَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ أَخْرَجَاهُ فِي الصَّحِيحِ مِنْ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ
[Machine] Allah ﷺ said, "The privilege belongs to those who have been blessed." She said, "And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ chose her and married her to a servant, and she gave Aisha meat as a gift." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is charity for her, and it is a gift for us."
اللهِ ﷺ الْوَلَاءُ لِمَنْ وَلِيَ النِّعْمَةَ قَالَتْ وَخَيَّرَهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَكَانَ زَوَّجَهَا عَبْدًا وَأَهْدَتْ لِعَائِشَةَ ؓ لَحْمًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ هُوَ عَلَيْهَا صَدَقَةٌ وَهُوَ لَنَا هَدِيَّةٌ
Whenever a meal was brought to Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he would ask whether it was a gift or Sadaqa (something given in charity). If he was told that it was Sadaqa, he would tell his companions to eat it, but if it was a gift, he would hurry to share it with them. (Using translation from Bukhārī 2576)
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ سَأَلَ أَهَدِيَّةٌ هُوَ أَمْ صَدَقَةٌ؟ فَإِنْ قِيلَ صَدَقَةٌ قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ كُلُوا وَلَمْ يَأَكُلْ وَإِنْ قِيلَ هَدِيَّةٌ ضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ فَأَكَلَ مَعَهُمْ
Whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was presented with food, he asked about it, If he was told that it was a gift, he ate out of that, and if he was told that it was a sadaqa he did not eat out of that. (Using translation from Muslim 1077)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ فَإِنْ قِيلَ هَدِيَّةٌ أَكَلَ مِنْهَا وَإِنْ قِيلَ صَدَقَةٌ لَمْ يَأَكُلْ مِنْهَا
[Machine] I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with a handful of bread and meat, and he asked, "What is this, O Salman?" I said, "It is charity." He did not eat and said to his companions, "Eat." Then I came to him with another handful of bread and meat, and he asked, "What is this, O Salman?" I said, "It is a gift." He ate and said, "We eat gifts, but we do not eat charity."
أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ بِجَفْنَةٍ مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَلَحْمٍ فَقَالَ مَا هَذِهِ يَا سَلْمَانُ؟ قُلْتُ صَدَقَةٌ فَلَمْ يَأَكُلْ وَقَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ كُلُوا ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ بِجَفْنَةٍ مِنْ خُبْزٍ وَلَحْمٍ فَقَالَ مَا هَذِهِ يَا سَلْمَانُ؟ قُلْتُ هَدِيَّةٌ فَأَكَلَ قَالَ إِنَّا نَأَكُلُ الْهَدِيَّةَ وَلَا نَأَكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ
