[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by a land of a man from the Ansar who was planting crops and knew that he was in need. So he said, "Who does this belong to?" The man replied, "To so and so, he gave it to me as a reward." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If he had given it to his brother."  

الطبراني:٤٣٦٧ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ ثنا حَفْصُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الرَّبَالِيُّ ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ ثنا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ قَالَ

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِأَرْضِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يَزْرَعُ وَقَدْ عَرَفَ أَنَّهُ مُحْتَاجٌ فَقَالَ «لِمَنْ هَذِهِ؟» فَقَالَ لِفُلَانٍ أَعْطَانِيهَا بِالْأَجْرِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْ مَنَحَهَا أَخَاهُ»

nasai:3869 – Aḥmad b. Sulaymān > ʿUbaydullāh > Isrāʾīl > Ibrāhīm b. Muhājir > Mujāhid > Rāfiʿ b. Khadīj

"The Prophet passed by the land of a man from among the Ansar who he knew was in need and said: 'Whose is this land?' He said: 'So and so's; he has given it to us in return for rent.' He said: 'Why did he not give it to his brother?'" Rafi' came to the Ansar and said: "The Messenger of Allah has forbidden something for you which was beneficial, but obedience to the command of the Messenger of Allah is more beneficial for you."
