[Machine] Regarding the jurists of the people of Madinah, they used to say regarding every gift given by someone with high rank, that there should be no compensation or reward in return. They also said that the reward is for the one whose gift is given with the intention of reward, as long as they have not been deprived of it and have not missed it. Umar ibn Abdul Aziz confirmed this. Isa ibn Minaa' also stated in his narration that the one who has not been deprived of his gift and has not missed it is more deserving of his gift.
عَنِ الْفُقَهَاءِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ فِي كُلِّ عَطِيَّةٍ أَعْطَاهَا ذُو طَوْلٍ أَنْ لَا عِوَضَ فِيهَا وَلَا ثَوَابَ وَقَالُوا الثَّوَابُ لِمَنْ كَانَتْ عَطِيَّتُهُ عَلَى وَجْهِ الثَّوَابِ أَنَّهُ أَحَقُّ بِعَطِيَّتِهِ مَا لَمْ يُثَبْ مِنْهَا وَقَضَى بِذَلِكَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ قَالَ عِيسَى بْنُ مِينَاءٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ أَحَقُّ بِعَطِيَّتِهِ مَا لَمْ يُثَبْ مِنْهَا وَمَا لَمْ تَفُتْ
