tabarani:21734Muḥammad b. Muʿādh al-Ḥalabī > ʿAbdullāh b. Maslamah al-Qaʿnabī from my father > Hishām b. ʿUrwah from his father > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] Abdullah bin Maslamah Al-Qa'nabi narrated to me that his father, Hisham bin 'Urwah, narrated from his father, from Aisha who said: Hind, the mother of Muawiya, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Abu Sufyan is a stingy man and does not give me enough to suffice me and my children, except for what I take from him without his knowledge. Is there any harm for me in that? So the Prophet ﷺ said to her: "Take that which is sufficient for you and your children in a manner that is reasonable."

[Machine] Hind, the mother of Muawiya and the wife of Abu Sufyan, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Sufyan is a stingy man and does not provide me and my children with enough. I only take from him what I can take, and he does not know. Is there any blame on me regarding this?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "Take what is sufficient for you and your children in a manner that is acceptable."

[Machine] Hind the mother of Muawiyah came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and she said, "Indeed, Abu Sufyan is a stingy man and he does not give me and my children enough except what I have taken from him without his knowledge. So, am I entitled to anything in this matter?" The Prophet ﷺ said to her, "Take what is sufficient for you and your children according to what is right." This is the wording of the hadith narrated by Abdul Aziz.

[Machine] Hind went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, indeed Abu Sufyan is a stingy man who does not spend on me or my children enough to suffice us. Shall I take from his wealth without his knowledge?" He replied, "Take what is sufficient for you and your children with kindness." In another narration by Anas bin Malik, he said, "He does not give me and my children enough except what I take from him secretly, and he does not know about it. Do I have any responsibility in that?" Then he mentioned it (the matter).
