حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، قَالَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى مَالِكٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ، الرَّحْمَنِ وَعَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، يُحَدِّثَانِهِ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ

إِنَّ أَبَاهُ أَتَى بِهِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي نَحَلْتُ ابْنِي هَذَا غُلَامًا كَانَ لِي. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَكُلَّ وَلَدِكَ نَحَلْتَهُ مِثْلَ هَذَا». فَقَالَ لَا. فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَارْجِعْهُ»

His father brought him to the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) and said: I have donated this slave of mine to my son. The Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Have you donated to every one of your sons (a slave) like this? He said: No. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) (may peace he upon him) said: Then take him back.

سفیان نے ( ابن شہاب ) زہری سے ، انھوں نے سالم سے اور انھوں نے اپنے والد ( ابن عمر رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے ر وایت کی کہ میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو دیکھا ، جب آپ کو چلنے کی جلدی ہوتی تو آپ مغرب اور عشاء کو جمع کرلیتے تھے ۔)

Dan telah menceritakan kepada kami [Yahya bin Yahya] dan [Qutaibah bin Said] dan [Abu Bakar bin Abu Syaibah] dan ['Amru An Naqid], semuanya dari [Ibnu 'Uyainah]. ['Amru] berkata; telah menceritakan kepada kami [Sufyan] dari [Az Zuhri] dari [Salim] dari [Ayahnya], bahwa aku pernah melihat Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam menjamk antara Maghrib dan Isya' jika dalam perjalanannya

What it means

An-Nu‘mān ibn Bashīr (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that his mother, ‘Amrah bint Rawāhah (may Allah be pleased with her), asked his father for a portion of his wealth as a gift for her son. He hesitated and delayed it for a year, but then he decided to respond to her request and give the gift to his son, an-Nu‘mān.

She said: I will not be satisfied until you have the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) witness what you have given as a gift to my son. So, my father took my hand, and I was a young boy at that time, and he went to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, the mother of this, Bint Rawāhah, wishes for you to witness what I have given as a gift to her son.

He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Bashīr, do you have children other than this one? He said: Yes. He then said: Have you given them all the same gift as this?

He said: No. He said: Then do not make me a witness, for I do not bear witness to injustice and oppression. And in the version of Muslim, he said to him reproachfully: Then have someone else witness it, not me.

What it teaches

  • Justice is obligatory between sons and daughters in gifts and offerings. However, for financial maintenance, it is determined based on individual needs, each according to his requirements.
  • Favoring some children over others is injustice and oppression, and it is not permissible to bear witness to it, either in taking the testimony or in delivering it.
  • An-Nawawi said: One should treat his children equally in giving gifts, granting each one the same as the others without favoritism, and should treat men and females equally. Some of our fellow scholars said: A male should receive twice the share of a female, but the correct and famous view is that they should be treated equally, as indicated by the apparent meaning of the Hadīth.
  • Rulings that are contrary to the Shariah are invalid and do not take effect.
  • The ruler or the mufti should request details on matters that require further inquiry, as indicated by the Prophet's statement: "Did you do this for all your children?"
  • An-Nawawi said: This indicates the permissibility of a parent retracting his gift to the child.
  • The command to do what leads to harmony among siblings and to avoid what causes enmity between them or leads to undutifulness to parents.
