الكبرى للنسائي:٢٤١٠أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حُجَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ تَصَدَّقَ بِفَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَوَجَدَهُ يُبَاعُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأَرَادَ

أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَاسْتَأْمَرَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَعُدْ فِي صَدَقَتِكَ»

bukhari:1489Yaḥyá b. Bukayr > al-Layth > ʿUqayl > Ibn Shihāb > Sālim > ʿAbdullāh

ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab gave a horse in charity in Allah's Cause and later he saw it being sold in the market and intended to purchase it. Then he went to the Prophet ﷺ and asked his permission. The Prophet said, "Do not take back what you have given in charity." For this reason, Ibn ʿUmar never purchased the things which he had given in charity, and in case he had purchased something (unknowingly) he would give it in charity again.  

البخاري:١٤٨٩حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ عُقَيْلٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ سَالِمٍ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ؓ كَانَ يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ تَصَدَّقَ بِفَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَوَجَدَهُ يُبَاعُ فَأَرَادَ

أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَاسْتَأْمَرَهُ فَقَالَ لاَ تَعُدْ فِي صَدَقَتِكَ فَبِذَلِكَ كَانَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ ؓ لاَ يَتْرُكُ أَنْ يَبْتَاعَ شَيْئًا تَصَدَّقَ بِهِ إِلاَّ جَعَلَهُ صَدَقَةً

'Umar give a house in charity for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, and he found it being offered for sale after that. He wanted to buy it, then he went to the Messenger of Allah and asked him about that. The Messenger of Allah said: "Do not take back what you have given in charity."

أَنَّ عُمَرَ تَصَدَّقَ بِفَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ﷻ فَوَجَدَهَا تُبَاعُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَهُ ثُمَّ أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَاسْتَأْمَرَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ تَعُدْ فِي صَدَقَتِكَ
