حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ: أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا أَهْدَى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَكْرَةً، فَعَوَّضَهُ مِنْهَا (١) سِتَّ بَكَرَاتٍ، فَتَسَخَّطَهُ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِنَّ فُلَانًا أَهْدَى إِلَيَّ نَاقَةً، وَهِيَ نَاقَتِي، أَعْرِفُهَا كَمَا أَعْرِفُ بَعْضَ أَهْلِي، ذَهَبَتْ مِنِّي يَوْمَ زَغَابَاتٍ، فَعَوَّضْتُهُ سِتَّ بَكَرَاتٍ، فَظَلَّ سَاخِطًا، لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أَقْبَلَ هَدِيَّةً إِلَّا مِنْ قُرَشِيٍّ، أَوْ أَنْصَارِيٍّ، أَوْثَقَفِيٍّ، أَوْ دَوْسِيٍّ " (٢)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a Bedouin presented a young camel as a gift to the Noble Prophet (ﷺ). The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) gave him six young camels in return, but he was still not pleased. When the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) came to know of this, after praising and glorifying Allah, he said: "Such-and-such a man gave me a camel as a gift, even though it was my own camel, and I used to recognize it just as I recognize a member of my household. On the occasion of the Day of Zaghābāt, it had slipped from my hand (but still I accepted it), and I gave him six young camels, yet he is still not pleased. I am now inclined not to accept any gift from anyone except one who belongs to the Quraysh, or the Ansar, or Thaqif, or Daws."
