ذِكْرُ هِبَةِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ الْبَعِيرَ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ

ibnhibban:7073ʿUmar b. Muḥammad al-Hamdānī Bikhabar Gharīb from my father > al-Ḥumaydī > Sufyān > ʿAmr b. Dīnār > Ibn ʿUmar

We were accompanying the Prophet ﷺ on a journey and I was riding an unmanageable camel belonging to 'Umar (ra), and I could not bring it under my control. So, it used to go ahead of the party and 'Umar would check it and force it to retreat, and again it went ahead and again 'Umar forced it to retreat. The Prophet ﷺ asked 'Umar to sell that camel to him. 'Umar replied, "It is for you O Messenger of Allah !" Messenger of Allah ﷺ told 'Umar to sell that camel to him (not to give it as gift). So, 'Umar sold it to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then the Prophet ﷺ said to 'Abdullah bin 'Umar "This camel is for you O 'Abdullah (as a present) and you could do with it whatever you like." (Using translation from Bukhārī 2115)  

ابن حبّان:٧٠٧٣أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ بِخَبَرٍ غَرِيبٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ

كُنَّا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي سَفَرٍ فَكُنْتُ عَلَى بَكْرٍ صَعْبٍ لِعُمَرَ فَكَانَ يَغْلِبُنِي فَيَتَقَدَّمُ أَمَامَ الْقَوْمِ فَيَزْجُرُهُ عُمَرُ وَيَرُدُّهُ ثُمَّ يَتَقَدَّمُ فَيَزْجُرُهُ عُمَرُ وَيَرُدُّهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِعُمَرَ «بِعْنِيهِ» قَالَ هُوَ لَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ «بِعْنِيهِ» فَبَاعَهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «هُوَ لَكَ يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ فَاصْنَعْ بِهِ مَا شِئْتَ» *

bukhari:2610ʿAbdullāh b. Muḥammad > Ibn ʿUyaynah > ʿAmr > Ibn ʿUmar

That he was in the company of the Prophet ﷺ on a journey, riding a troublesome camel belonging to ʿUmar. The camel used to go ahead of the Prophet, so Ibn ʿUmar's father would say, "O ʿAbdullah! No one should go ahead of the Prophet." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Sell it to me." ʿUmar said to the Prophet "It is for you." So, he bought it and said, "O ʿAbdullah! It is for you, and you can do with it what you like."
