The Prophet came to visit me when I was in Makkah. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, shall I bequeath all my money?' He said: 'No.' I said: 'One-half?' He said: 'No.' I said: 'One-third?' He said: '(Bequeath) one-third, and one-third is a lot. If you leave your heirs independent of means, that is better than if you leave them poor and holding out their hands to people.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Ya'qub bin Sufyan berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Sulaiman bin Harb berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Hammad bin Yazid dari Hajib bin Al Mufadldlal bin Al Muhallab dari ayahnya ia berkata Aku mendengar An Nu'man bin Basyir berkhutbah ia berkata Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Berlaku adillah di antara anak-anak kalian.

Abdullah bin 'Amr bin Haram died, leaving behind debts. I asked the Messenger of Allah to intercede with his creditors so that they would waive part of the debt. He asked them to do that but they refused. The Prophet said to me: 'Go and sort your dates into their different kinds: The 'Ajwah on one side, the cluster of Ibn Zaid on another side, and so on. Then send for me.' I did that, then the Messenger of Allah came and sat at the head or in the middle of the heaps. Then he said: 'Measure them out for the people.' So I measured them out for them until I had paid them all off, and my dates were left as if nothing had been taken from them.

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Muhammad bin Al 'Ala berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Abu Khalid -yaitu Sulaiman bin Hayyan- dari Sa'id bin Abu 'Arubah dari Ayyub dari Ikrimah dari Ibnu Abbas berkata Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Kita tidak memiliki permisalan yang buruk sesungguhnya orang yang mengambil kembali pemberiannya seperti orang yang memakan kembali muntahannya.

My father owed some dates to a Jew. He was killed on the Day of Uhud and he left behind two gardens. The dates owed to the Jew would take up everything in the two gardens. The Prophet said: 'Can you take half this year and half next year?' But the Jew refused. The Prophet said: 'When the time to pick the dates comes, call me.' So I called him and he came, accompanied by Abu Bakr. The dates were picked and weighed from the lowest part of the palm trees, and the Messenger of Allah was praying for blessing, until we paid off everything that we owed him from the smaller of the two gardens, as calculated by 'Ammar. Then I brought them some fresh dates and water and they ate and drank, then he said: 'This is part of the blessing concerning which you will be questioned.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami 'Amru bin Zurarah berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Isma'il dari Ayyub dari 'Ikrimah dari Ibnu Abbas berkata Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Kita tidak memiliki permisalan yang buruk sesungguhnya orang yang mengambil kembali pemberiannya seperti anjing yang memakan kembali muntahannya.

My father died owing debts. I offered to his creditors that they could take the fruits in lieu of what he owed them, but they refused as they thought that it would not cover the debt. I went to the Messenger of Allah and told him about that, he said: 'When you pick the dates and have put them in the Mirbad (place for drying dates), call me.' When I had picked the dates and put them in the Mirbad, I went to the Messenger of Allah and he came, accompanied by Abu Bakr and 'Umar. He sat on (the dates) and prayed for blessing. Then he said: 'Call your creditors and pay them off.' I did not leave anyone to whom my father owed anything but I paid him off, and I had thirteen Wasqs left over. I mentioned that to him and he smiled and said: 'Go to Abu Bakr and 'Umar and tell them about that.' So I went to Abu Bakr and 'Umar and told them about that, and they said: 'We knew, when the Messenger of Allah did what he did, that this would happen.'

:Telah mengabarkan kepada kami Muhammad bin Hatim bin Nu'aim berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami Hibban berkata; telah memberitakan kepada kami Abdullah dari Khalid dari 'Ikrimah dari Ibnu Abbas berkata Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: Kita tidak memiliki permisalan yang buruk sesungguhnya orang yang mengambil kembali pemberiannya seperti anjing dalam muntahannya.
