My master commanded me to cut some meat in strips; (as I was doing it) a poor man came to me and I gave him some of it to eat. My master came to know of that, and he beat me. I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and narrated it to him. He (the Holy Prophet) summoned him and said: Why did you beat him? He (Abi'l-Lahm) said: He gives away my food without being commanded to do so. Upon this he (the Holy Prophet) said: The reward would be shared by you two.

أَنْ أُقَدِّدَ لَحْمًا فَجَاءَنِي مِسْكِينٌ فَأَطْعَمْتُهُ مِنْهُ فَعَلِمَ بِذَلِكَ مَوْلاَىَ فَضَرَبَنِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لِمَ ضَرَبْتَهُ فَقَالَ يُعْطِي طَعَامِي بِغَيْرِ أَنْ آمُرَهُ فَقَالَ الأَجْرُ بَيْنَكُمَا

'Umair, the freed slave of commanded me to cut up some meat, then a poor man came so I gave him some. When my master fund out about that, he beat me, so I went to the Messenger of Allah and he came to him and said: 'Do not beat him.' He said: 'He gave away my food without me telling him to.' He said: 'The reward will be shared between you both."'

أَنْ أُقَدِّدَ لَحْمًا فَجَاءَ مِسْكِينٌ فَأَطْعَمْتُهُ مِنْهُ فَعَلِمَ بِذَلِكَ مَوْلاَىَ فَضَرَبَنِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لِمَ ضَرَبْتَهُ فَقَالَ يُطْعِمُ طَعَامِي بِغَيْرِ أَنْ آمُرَهُ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى بِغَيْرِ أَمْرِي قَالَ الأَجْرُ بَيْنَكُمَا

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated to us, Hatim ibn Isma'il narrated to us, Yazid ibn Abi 'Ubayd said: I heard Umair, the servant of Abu al-Lahm, saying: My master ordered me to prepare meat for him, so a poor man came to me and I fed him from it. My master struck me, so I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and informed him about it. The Prophet ﷺ called my master and asked him: Why did you hit him? He replied: He fed my food without my permission. The Prophet ﷺ said: "The reward is between you both." Al-Dhahabi remained silent about it in his summary.

ثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَيْرًا مَوْلَى آبِي اللَّحْمِ يَقُولُ أَمَرَنِي مَوْلَايَ أَنْ أُقَدِّدَ لَهُ لَحْمًا فَجَاءَنِي مِسْكِينٌ فَأَطْعَمْتُهُ مِنْهُ فَضَرَبَنِي مَوْلَايَ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَذَكَرْتُ لَهُ فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لِمَ ضَرَبْتَهُ؟ فَقَالَ يُطْعِمُ طَعَامِي مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ آمُرَهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «الْأَجْرُ بَيْنَكُمَا» سكت عنه الذهبي في التلخيص

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated that Hatim ibn Isma'il narrated from Yazid ibn Abi 'Ubaid that he said: "I heard 'Umayr, the freed slave of Abu Al-Lahm, saying: 'My master commanded me to prepare some meat, so a poor man came to me and I fed him some of it. When my master found out, he struck me. So I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him about it. The Prophet ﷺ called my master and asked him, 'Why did you strike him?' He replied, 'He fed someone without my command.' The Prophet ﷺ said, 'The reward is between you two.'"

أَنْ أُقَدِّدَ له لَحْمًا فَجَاءَ مِسْكِينٌ فَأَطْعَمْتُهُ مِنْهُ فَعَلِمَ بِذَلِكَ مَوْلَايَ فَضَرَبَنِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَدَعَاهُ فَقَالَ «لِمَ ضَرَبْتَهُ؟» قَالَ يُطْعِمُ طَعَامِي بِغَيْرِ أَنْ آمُرَهُ وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى بِغَيْرِ أَمْرِي قَالَ «الْأَجْرُ بَيْنَكُمَا»
