[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Sufyan is a stingy man. Is it permissible for me to take from his wealth without his knowledge?" He said, "Take what is sufficient for you and your child through righteous means."  

لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ شَحِيحٌ أَعَلَيَّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ مَالِهِ سِرًّا؟ قَالَ خُذِي مَا يَكْفِيكِ وَوَلَدَكِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ  

[Machine] Hind went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed Abu Sufyan is a stingy man who does not spend on me or my children enough to suffice us. Shall I take from his wealth without his knowledge?" He replied, "Take what is sufficient for you and your children with kindness." In another narration by Anas bin Malik, he said, "He does not give me and my children enough except what I take from him secretly, and he does not know about it. Do I have any responsibility in that?" Then he mentioned it (the matter).  

هِنْدُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ شَحِيحٌ وَلَا يُنْفِقُ عَلَيَّ وَلَا عَلَى وَلَدِي مَا يَكْفِينِي وَبَنِيَّ أَفَآخُذُ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَهُوَ لَا يَشْعُرُ؟ فَقَالَ خُذِي مَا يَكْفِيكِ وَوَلَدَكِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَنَسِ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُعْطِينِي مَا يَكْفِينِي وَوَلَدِي إِلَّا مَا أَخَذْتُ مِنْهُ سِرًّا وَهُوَ لَا يَعْلَمُ فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ فِي ذَلِكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَهُ  

[Machine] "O Messenger of Allah, I swear by Allah that there was never anyone from the people of Khubaa' more beloved to me than to have them humiliated in front of the people of your Khubaa', who are now on the face of the earth in the morning and it is more beloved to me that they are honored among your people of Khubaa'." He (the Prophet) said: "Also, by the one in whose hand is my soul, then she (the woman) said: "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Sufyan is a man who is tight-fisted, so is there any harm if I feed from what he owns for the sake of his dependents?" He said: "No, as long as it is done in kindness." And in the narration of Ibn Bukayr, she said: "Is there any harm for me to feed from what he owns?" He said: "Yes, as long as it is done in kindness." They have the same meaning, and Ibn Bukayr doubted between Ihya' and Khubaa'.  

يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَاللهِ مَا كَانَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَاءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلِيَّ أَنْ يَذِلُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَائِكَ ثُمَّ مَا أَصْبَحَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ أَهْلُ خِبَاءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلِيَّ أَنْ يَعِزُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَائِكَ قَالَ وَأَيْضًا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ مُمْسِكٌ فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ حَرَجٌ فِي أَنْ أُطْعِمَ مِنَ الَّذِي لَهُ عِيَالًا؟ قَالَ لَا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ مِنْ حَرَجٍ أَنْ أَطْعَمَ مِنَ الَّذِي لَهُ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَمَعْنَاهُمَا وَاحِدٌ وَشَكَّ ابْنُ بُكَيْرٍ فِي إِحْيَاءٍ أَوْ خِبَاءٍ  

[Machine] He heard the Prophet ﷺ saying: "Whichever Muslim joins a community and becomes a stranger, and the guest is deprived of their rights, it is incumbent upon every Muslim to help them until they have obtained livestock and crops from their own wealth."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ ضَافَ قَوْمًا فَأَصْبَحَ الضَّيْفُ مَحْرُومًا كَانَ حَقًّا عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ نَصْرُهُ حَتَّى يَأْخُذَ لَهُ بِقِرَاهُ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَزَرْعِهِ  

[Machine] I said, "O Messenger of Allah, if you send us to a people who do not recognize us, what do you see in that?" The Prophet ﷺ said, "If you stay with a people, you should be treated as guests deserve. If they do not do so, then take from them the rights of the guest that are due to you."  

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ تَبْعَثُنَا فَنَنْزِلُ بِقَوْمٍ لَا يَقْرُونَنَا فَمَا تَرَى فِي ذَلِكَ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنْ نَزَلْتُمْ بِقَوْمٍ فَأُمِرَ لَكُمْ بِمَا يَنْبَغِي لِلضَّيْفِ فَاقْبَلُوا فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلُوا فَخُذُوا مِنْهُمْ حَقَّ الضَّيْفِ الَّذِي يَنْبَغِي لَهُمْ  

I used to write (the account of) the expenditure incurred on orphans who were under the guardianship of so-and-so. They cheated him by one thousand dirhams and he paid these (this amount) to them. I then got double the property which they deserved. I said (to the man: Take one thousand (dirhams) which they have taken from you (by cheating). He said: No, my father has told me that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Pay the deposit to him who deposited it with you, and do not betray him who betrays you. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3534)   

كُنْتُ أَكْتُبُ لِفُلَانٍ نَفَقَةَ أَيْتَامٍ كَانَ وَلِيَّهُمْ فَغَالَطُوهُ بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ فَأَدَّاهَا إِلَيْهِمْ فَأَدْرَكْتُ لَهُمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ مِثْلَهَا قَالَ قُلْتُ اقْبِضِ الْأَلْفَ الَّذِي ذَهَبُوا بِهِ مِنْكَ قَالَ لَا حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ أَدِّ إِلَى مَنِ ائْتَمَنَكَ وَلَا تَخُنْ مَنْ خَانَكَ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Give back the trust to the one who entrusted you and do not betray the one who betrayed you." Abu al-Fadl said, "I asked Talq, 'Should I write a partnership agreement and leave out Qays?' He replied, 'You are the most knowledgeable of the first Hadith ruling on disconnected narration, where Yusuf ibn Mahak's name is not mentioned as the one who narrated it from him, nor is the name of the person who narrated from him mentioned. The Hadith of Abu Husayn, the judge, and Qays ibn al-Rabi' are unique to them, and Qays is weak. Furthermore, Shariq was not mentioned by most knowledgeable scholars in relation to this Hadith, and it was only Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj who mentioned it in Al-Shawahid. It was narrated from Abu Hafs al-Dimashqi from Mak’hul from Abu Umamah from the Prophet ﷺ , and this is weak because Mak’hul did not hear anything from Abu Umamah, and Abu Hafs al-Dimashqi is unknown. It was also narrated from Al-Hasan from the Prophet ﷺ , but it is disconnected. Ayub ibn Suwayd narrated it, and he is weak according to Ibn Shawdhab, who narrated it from Abu Tayyah from Anas as a marfu' Hadith. Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Muhammad ibn Abdullah al-Attar al-Hayyari informed us that Abu Sa'id al-Razi narrated to him, who said that Ahmad ibn 'Umayr narrated to him, who said that Sulayman al-Khassaf narrated to him, who said that Ayub ibn Suwayd narrated it to them and mentioned it. Abu Sa'id ibn Abi 'Amr narrated to us, who said that Abu al-Abbas al-Asamm informed us that al-Rabi' narrated, "Al-Shafi'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said about this Hadith, 'It is not established among the scholars of Hadith among you. Even if it were established, it would not be an argument against us.' Then he went on to say, 'When the Sunnah and the consensus of many scholars indicate that a person should take what is rightfully his secretly from the person who owes it to him, it is evidence that this is not considered betrayal. Betrayal is taking what is not rightfully his. So, if someone betrays me with one dirham, and I say that I have the right to take 10 dirhams as compensation for their betrayal, I would not be taking that dirham and would not be a betrayer or an oppressor, as I was when I took nine dirhams with my own dirham, because they did not betray me.'"
