An onager was presented to Messenger of Allah ﷺ at the place called Al-Abwa' or Waddan, but Allah's Apostle rejected it. When the Prophet ﷺ noticed the signs of sorrow on the giver's face he said, "We have not rejected your gift, but we are in the state of Ihram." (i.e. if we were not in a state of Ihram we would have accepted your gift, Fath-ul-Bari page 130, Vol. 6)  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَهْوَ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا فِي وَجْهِهِ قَالَ أَمَا إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

From As-Sa'b bin Jath-thama Al-Laithi that the latter presented an onager to Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was at Al-Abwa' or at Waddan, and he refused it. On noticing the signs of some unpleasant feeling of disappointment on his (As-Sab's) face, the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "I have only returned it because I am Muhrim."  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَهْوَ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا فِي وَجْهِهِ قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked into my face (which had the mark of dejection as my present had been rejected by him) he (in order to console me) said: We have refused it only because we are in a state of Ihram.  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَهُوَ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَلَمَّا أَنْ رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

he gave the Messenger of Allah an onager when he was in Al-Abwa or in Waddan, but the Messenger of Allah gave it back to him. "And when the Messenger of Allah saw the expression on my face he said: "We only gave it back to you because we are in Ihram.'"  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ وَهُوَ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ أَمَّا إِنَّهُ لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

As-S'ab bin Jath-thamah informed him that the Messenger of Allah had passed him at Al-Abwa or Bawaddan. He (As-S'ab) gave him a wild donkey but he refused it. When the Messenger of Allah noticed on his face that he was upset, he said: "We would not refuse you, but we are in Ihram"  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَرَّ بِهِ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَأَهْدَى لَهُ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِهِ مِنَ الْكَرَاهِيَةِ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ  

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Ibn Shihab, from Ubaydullah ibn Abdullah ibn Utba ibn Masud, from Abdullah ibn Abbas, that as-Sab ibn Jaththama al-Laythi once gave a wild ass to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ while he was at al- Abwa, or Waddan, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave it back to him. However, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw the expression on the man's face he said, "We only gave it back to you because we are in ihram."  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَهُوَ بِالأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلاَّ أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

he gave the Messenger of Allah an onager when he was in Al-Abwa or in Waddan, but the Messenger of Allah gave it back to him. "And when the Messenger of Allah saw the expression on my face he said: "We only gave it back to you because we are in Ihram.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2819)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا وَهُوَ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

[Machine] I gifted the Prophet ﷺ a weak and stubborn donkey, either with a long tail or with long ears. He returned it to me, and when he saw the distress on my face, he said, "We returned it to you because we are forbidden"  

أَهْدَيْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ حِمَارًا عَقِيرًا وَحْشِيًّا بِوَدَّانَ أَوْ قَالَ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ قَالَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى شِدَّةَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا إِنَّمَا رَدَدْنَاهُ عَلَيْكَ لِأَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

he gave the Messenger of Allah an onager when he was in Al-Abwa or in Waddan, but the Messenger of Allah gave it back to him. "And when the Messenger of Allah saw the expression on my face he said: "We only gave it back to you because we are in Ihram.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2819)   

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ وَهُوَ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنَّا حُرُمٌ  

[Machine] I heard Sa'd bin Jathama bin Qais Al-Laythi say: "I presented to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a wild donkey as a gift. He rejected it and when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw displeasure on my face, he said: 'It is not that we reject it because of you, but it is impermissible for us.'"  

سَمِعْتُ الصَّعْبَ بْنَ جَثَّامَةَ بْنِ قَيْسٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ يَقُولُ أَهْدَيْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي وَجْهِي الْكَرَاهِيَةَ قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ  

“Sa;b bin Jaththamah told us: ‘The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me when I was in Abwa’ or Waddan, and I gave him some meat of a wild donkey, but he gave it back to me, and when he saw from my face that I was upset, he said: ‘The only reason that we are giving it back is that we are in Ihram.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3090)   

وَأَهْدَيْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ لَحْمَ حِمَارِ وَحْشٍ وَهُوَ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْكَرَاهِيَةَ فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ مِنَّا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ  

he gave the Messenger of Allah an onager when he was in Al-Abwa or in Waddan, but the Messenger of Allah gave it back to him. "And when the Messenger of Allah saw the expression on my face he said: "We only gave it back to you because we are in Ihram.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2819)  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَهُوَبِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّا لَمْ نَرُدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ إِلَّا أَنَّا حُرُمٌ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَرَّ بِي وَأَنَا بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَأَهْدَيْتُ لَهُ حِمَارَ وَحْشٍ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺالْكَرَاهِيَةَ فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ قُلْتُ لِابْنِ شِهَابٍ الْحِمَارُ عَقِيرٌ قَالَ لَا أَدْرِي  

“Sa;b bin Jaththamah told us: ‘The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me when I was in Abwa’ or Waddan, and I gave him some meat of a wild donkey, but he gave it back to me, and when he saw from my face that I was upset, he said: ‘The only reason that we are giving it back is that we are in Ihram.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 3090)  

مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ وَأَهْدَيْتُ لَهُ لَحْمَ حِمَارِ وَحْشٍ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى فِي وَجْهِي الْكَرَاهِيَةَ قَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by me while I was in Al-Abwa or Waddan, so I presented to him the meat of a wild donkey. He returned it to me when he saw dislike in my face, saying, "It is not permissible for us, but it is for them." The Prophet ﷺ was asked about staying overnight in a polytheist's house where their women and children are present, and he said, "They are from them." I also heard him say, "There is no protection except for Allah and His Messenger."  

مَرَّ بِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ فَأَهْدَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ لَحْمَ حِمَارٍ وَحْشٍ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَى الْكَرَاهِيَةَ فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ «إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ» وَسُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ عَنِ الدَّارِ مِنَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يُبَيَّتُونَ فَيُصَابُ مِنْ نِسَائِهِمْ وَذَرَارِيِّهِمْ قَالَ «هُمْ مِنْهُمْ» قَالَ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ «لَا حِمَى إِلَّا لِلَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ»  

[Machine] "He presented to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a wild donkey, either from al-Abwa' or from Waddan, so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned it to me. That hurt me deeply and when he saw the expression on my face, he said, 'We are not rejecting you, but we are forbidden from accepting it.'"  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ حِمَارَ وَحْشِيٍّ بِالْأَبْوَاءِ أَوْ بِوَدَّانَ قَالَ فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَاشْتَدَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيَّ فَلَمَّا عَرَفَ ذَلِكَ فِي وَجْهِي قَالَ «لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ»

[Machine] He presented a wild donkey to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , but he returned it. When he saw the rejection in my face from returning his gift, he said, "Indeed, it is not a rejection from us to you, but rather we are forbidden (to accept it)."  

أَنَّهُ أَهْدَى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حِمَارًا وَحْشِيًّا فَرَدَّهُ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا رَأَى مَا فِي وَجْهِي مِنْ رَدِّ هَدِيَّتِهِ قَالَ «أَمَا إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ بِنَا رَدٌّ عَلَيْكَ وَلَكِنَّا حُرُمٌ»
