"I came to Al-Madinah with my paternal uncles and entered one of its gardens, where I rubbed an ear of grain (to take some grains). The owner of the garden came, took my cloak and hit me. I came to the Messenger of Allah [SAW] and sought his help against him. He sent for the man and they brought him. He said: 'What made you do that?' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, he entered my garden and took one of the ears of grain and rubbed it.' The Messenger of Allah [SAW] said: 'You did not teach him if he was ignorant, nor feed him if he was hungry. Give him back his cloak.' And the Messenger of Allah [SAW] ordered me with a Wasq or half a Wasq."  

قَدِمْتُ مَعَ عُمُومَتِي الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِهَا فَفَرَكْتُ مِنْ سُنْبُلِهِ فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَأَخَذَ كِسَائِي وَضَرَبَنِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَسْتَعْدِي عَلَيْهِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى الرَّجُلِ فَجَاءُوا بِهِ فَقَالَ مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى هَذَا فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ دَخَلَ حَائِطِي فَأَخَذَ مِنْ سُنْبُلِهِ فَفَرَكَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا عَلَّمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلاً وَلاَ أَطْعَمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَائِعًا ارْدُدْ عَلَيْهِ كِسَاءَهُ وَأَمَرَ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِوَسْقٍ أَوْ نِصْفِ وَسْقٍ  

I suffered from drought; so I entered a garden of Medina, and rubbed an ear-corn. I ate and carried in my garment. Then its master came, he beat me and took my garment. He came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said to him: You did not teach him if he was ignorant; and you did not feed him if he was hungry. He ordered him, so he returned my garment to me, and gave me one or half a wasq (sixty or thirty sa's) of corn.  

أَصَابَتْنِي سَنَةٌ فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَفَرَكْتُ سُنْبُلاً فَأَكَلْتُ وَحَمَلْتُ فِي ثَوْبِي فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُهُ فَضَرَبَنِي وَأَخَذَ ثَوْبِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَا عَلَّمْتَ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلاً وَلاَ أَطْعَمْتَ إِذْ كَانَ جَائِعًا أَوْ قَالَ سَاغِبًا وَأَمَرَهُ فَرَدَّ عَلَىَّ ثَوْبِي وَأَعْطَانِي وَسْقًا أَوْ نِصْفَ وَسْقٍ مِنْ طَعَامٍ  

“I heard 'Abbad bin Shurahbil, a man from Banu Ghubar, say: ‘We suffered a year of famine, and I came to Al-Madinah. I came to one of its gardens and took an ear of corn, I rubbed it, ate some and put the rest in my garment. The owner of the garden came and beat me and took my garment. I came to the Prophet ﷺ and told him (what had happened). He said to the man: "You did not feed him when he was hungry and you did not teach him when he was ignorant."' Then the Prophet ﷺ told him to give back his garment and ordered that a Wasq or half a Wasq of food be brought to him."  

أَصَابَنَا عَامُ مَخْمَصَةٍ فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَأَتَيْتُ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِهَا فَأَخَذْتُ سُنْبُلاً فَفَرَكْتُهُ وَأَكَلْتُهُ وَجَعَلْتُهُ فِي كِسَائِي فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَضَرَبَنِي وَأَخَذَ ثَوْبِي فَأَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ لِلرَّجُلِ مَا أَطْعَمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَائِعًا أَوْ سَاغِبًا وَلاَ عَلَّمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلاً فَأَمَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَرَدَّ إِلَيْهِ ثَوْبَهُ وَأَمَرَ لَهُ بِوَسْقٍ مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَوْ نِصْفِ وَسْقٍ

He ordered him, so he returned my garment to me, and gave me one or half a wasq (sixty or thirty sa's) of corn. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 2620)   

أَصَابَتْنَا سَنَةٌ فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِهَا فَأَخَذْتُ سُنْبُلًا فَفَرَكْتُهُ وَأَكَلْتُ مِنْهُ وَحَمَلْتُ فِي ثَوْبِي فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَضَرَبَنِي وَأَخَذَ ثَوْبِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا عَلَّمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلًا وَلَا أَطْعَمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ سَاغِبًا أَوْ جَائِعًا فَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ الثَّوْبَ وَأَمَرَ لِي بِنِصْفِ وَسْقٍ أَوْ وَسْقٍ  

[Machine] I arrived at the city and hunger struck me severely, so I entered a garden and took a stalk of wheat and ate from it and put some in my garment. Then the owner of the garden came and struck me and took what was in my garment. So we went to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned that to him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Did you teach him when he was ignorant and did you feed him when he was hungry?" So he ordered me to give him half of a wasq of barley.  

قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَقَدْ أَصَابَنِي جُوعٌ شَدِيدٌ فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا فَأَخَذْتُ سُنْبُلًا فَأَكَلْتُ مِنْهُ وَجَعَلْتُ فِي ثَوْبِي فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَضَرَبَنِي وَأَخَذَ مَا فِي ثَوْبِي قَالَ فَانْطَلَقْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَذَكَرْنَا ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا عَلَّمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلًا وَلَا أَطْعَمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ سَاغِبًا فَأَمَرَ لِي بِنِصْفِ وَسْقٍ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ
