حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ، عَنْ أُبَيِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، قَالَ: بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُصَدِّقًا عَلَى بَلِيٍّ وَعُذْرَةَ وَجَمِيعِ بَنِي سَعْدِ بْنِ هُذَيْمِ بْنِ قُضَاعَةَ، وَقَالَ يَعْقُوبُ، فِي مَوْضِعٍ آخَرَ: مِنْ قُضَاعَةَ، قَالَ: فَصَدَّقْتُهُمْ، حَتَّى مَرَرْتُ بِآخِرِ رَجُلٍ مِنْهُمْ، وَكَانَ مَنْزِلُهُ وَبَلَدُهُ مِنْ أَقْرَبِ مَنَازِلِهِمْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ. قَالَ: فَلَمَّا جَمَعَ إِلَيَّ مَالَهُ لَمْ أَجِدْ عَلَيْهِ فِيهَا إِلَّا ابْنَةَ مَخَاضٍ، يَعْنِي: فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ أَنَّهَا صَدَقَتُهُ،. قَالَ: فَقَالَ: ذَاكَ مَا لَا لَبَنَ فِيهِ وَلَا ظَهْرَ، وَايْمُ اللهِ مَا قَامَ فِي مَالِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا رَسُولٌ لَهُ قَطُّ قَبْلَكَ، وَمَا كُنْتُ لِأُقْرِضَ اللهَ مِنْ مَالِي مَا لَا لَبَنَ فِيهِ وَلَا ظَهْرَ، وَلَكِنْ هَذِهِ نَاقَةٌ فَتِيَّةٌ سَمِينَةٌ فَخُذْهَا.، ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ لَهُ: مَا أَنَا بِآخِذٍ مَا لَمْ أُومَرْ بِهِ، فَهَذَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْكَ قَرِيبٌ، فَإِنْ أَحْبَبْتَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَهُ فَتَعْرِضَ عَلَيْهِ مَا عَرَضْتَ عَلَيَّ فَافْعَلْ، فَإِنْ قَبِلَهُ مِنْكَ قَبِلَهُ، وَإِنْ رَدَّهُ عَلَيْكَ رَدَّهُ. قَالَ: فَإِنِّي فَاعِلٌ. قَالَ: فَخَرَجَ مَعِي وَخَرَجَ بِالنَّاقَةِ الَّتِي عَرَضَ عَلَيَّ حَتَّى قَدِمْنَا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. قَالَ: فَقَالَ لَهُ: يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ أَتَانِي رَسُولُكَ لِيَأْخُذَ مِنِّي صَدَقَةَ مَالِي، وَايْمُ اللهِ مَا قَامَ فِي مَالِي رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَلَا رَسُولٌ لَهُ قَطُّ قَبْلَهُ، فَجَمَعْتُ لَهُ مَالِي، فَزَعَمَ أَنَّ عَلَيَّ فِيهِ ابْنَةَ مَخَاضٍ، وَذَلِكَ مَا لَا لَبَنَ فِيهِ وَلَا ظَهْرَ، وَقَدْ عَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِ نَاقَةً فَتِيَّةً سَمِينَةً لِيَأْخُذَهَا فَأَبَى عَلَيَّ ذَلِكَ، وَقَالَ: هَا هِيَ هَذِهِ قَدْ جِئْتُكَ بِهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ خُذْهَا. قَالَ: فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: "ذَلِكَ الَّذِي عَلَيْكَ فَإِنْ تَطَوَّعْتَ بِخَيْرٍ قَبِلْنَاهُ مِنْكَ. وَآجَرَكَ اللهُ فِيهِ " قَالَ: فَهَا هِيَ ذِهْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ جِئْتُكَ بِهَا فَخُذْهَا. قَالَ: فَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَبْضِهَا، وَدَعَا لَهُ فِي مَالِهِ بِالْبَرَكَةِ (١)، ، •

It is narrated from Ubayy bin Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) sent me to collect zakat from Baliy, 'Uzrah, and all the Banu Sa'd bin Hudhaym. I collected zakat from them and came to the last man. His house and area in Madinah Munawwarah were closer to the house of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) than anyone else's. When he presented all his wealth before me, his zakat amounted to only one bint makhad (a young she-camel). I informed him that this was the amount of zakat due from him. He said, "This she-camel neither gives milk nor is it fit for riding. By Allah! Never before has the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) or any of his messengers come and stood over my wealth. Now, I cannot give Allah such an animal from my wealth as a loan which neither gives milk nor is fit for riding. However, here is a young and healthy she-camel; take it." I said, "I cannot take anything for which I do not have permission. However, the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) is very near to you. If you wish, you may go to him and present the same offer you made to me. If he accepts it, very good; otherwise, he will return it to you." He said, "I will do just that." So he set out with me and took along the she-camel he had offered me, until we reached the presence of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). He said, "O Messenger of Allah! Your messenger came to collect zakat from my wealth. By Allah, never before has the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) or any of his messengers come and stood over my wealth. So I gathered all my wealth. The messenger thought that one bint makhad was due from me, but that she-camel neither gave milk nor was fit for riding. Therefore, I presented a young and healthy she-camel before him, but he refused to take it. Now, O Messenger of Allah! I have brought it to you; please accept it." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Only this much zakat was due from you, but if you wish to do good voluntarily, we will accept it. Allah will reward you for it." He presented the she-camel, and the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) ordered it to be accepted and prayed for blessings in his wealth.
