[Machine] "A head of a sheep was gifted to a man from the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . He said, 'Indeed, my brother Fulan and his family are more in need of this than us.' So he sent it to him. He continued to send it to him from one person to another until it reached seven households and then returned to the first person. Then the verse was revealed: 'And they give [from their wealth] preference over themselves, even though they are in privation.' (Surah Al-Hashr, 59:9) until the end of the verse."  

أُهْدِي لِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ رَأْسُ شَاةٍ فَقَالَ «إِنَّ أَخِي فُلَانًا وَعِيَالَهُ أَحْوَجُ إِلَى هَذَا مِنَّا» قَالَ فَبَعَثَ إِلَيْهِ فَلَمْ يَزَلْ يَبْعَثُ إِلَيْهِ وَاحِدًا إِلَى آخَرَ حَتَّى تَدَاوَلَهَا سَبْعَةُ أَبْيَاتٍ حَتَّى رَجَعَتْ إِلَى الْأَوَّلِ فَنَزَلَتْ {وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ} [الحشر 9] إِلَى آخِرِ الْآيَةِ
