حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي عِمْرَانَ الْجَوْنِيِّ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي تَيْمِ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رضى الله عنها

قَالَتْ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ لِي جَارَيْنِ فَإِلَى أَيِّهِمَا أُهْدِي قَالَ: «إِلَى أَقْرَبِهِمَا مِنْكِ بَابًا»

I said, “O Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam)! I have two neighbors; which of them should I give a gift to?” The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “(Give) to the one whose door is nearer to you.”

‘আয়িশাহ (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি বললাম, হে আল্লাহর রাসূল! আমার দু’জন প্রতিবেশী আছে। এ দু’জনের কাকে আমি হাদিয়া দিব? তিনি ইরশাদ করলেন, এ দু’জনের মাঝে যার দরজা তোমার বেশি নিকটে। (২২৫৯)

ہم سے محمد بن بشار نے بیان کیا، انہوں نے کہا ہم سے محمد بن جعفر نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے شعبہ نے بیان کیا، ابوعمران جونی سے، ان سے بنو تیم بن مرہ کے ایک صاحب طلحہ بن عبداللہ نے اور ان سے عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا نے بیان کیا کہ میں نے عرض کیا، یا رسول اللہ!

میری دو پڑوسی ہیں، تو مجھے کس کے گھر ہدیہ بھیجنا چاہئے؟ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ”جس کا دروازہ تم سے قریب ہو۔“

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muhammad bin Basysyar] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Muhammad bin Ja'far] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Abu 'Imran AlJawniy] dari [Thalhah bin 'Abdullah, seorang dari suku Bani Tamim bin Murrah] dari ['Aisyah radliallahu 'anha] berkata; Aku bertanya: "Wahai Rasulullah, aku mempunyai dua tetangga. Kepada yang manakah dari keduanya bila aku memberikan hadiah?" Beliau menjawab: "Kepada yang terdekat pintu rumahnya denganmu diantara keduanya

Aişe r.anha'dan rivayet edilmiştir: "Ey Allah'ın Resulü! Benim iki komşum var. Hangisine hediye vereyim buyurursun" diye sordum. "Hangisinin kapısı sana daha yakınsa ona" buyurdu

What it means

‘Ā'ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him): I have two neighbors, and I have been ordered to be generous to neighbors in general, but I cannot afford to give a gift to both of them at the same time. So which one should I give a gift to so as to be considered from those who are generous to neighbors? he said: The one whose door is the nearest to you.
