Mishkat al-Masabih #2909

Business Transactions

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِبَاكُورَةِ الْفَاكِهَةِ وَضَعَهَا عَلَى عَيْنَيْهِ وَعَلَى شَفَتَيْهِ وَقَالَ: «اللَّهُمَّ كَمَا أَرَيْتَنَا أَوَّلَهُ فَأَرِنَا آخِرَهُ» ثُمَّ يُعْطِيهَا مَنْ يَكُونُ عِنْدَهُ مِنَ الصِّبْيَانِ. رَوَاهُ الْبَيْهَقِيّ فِي الدَّعْوَات الْكَبِير
Abu Huraira said that when God's Messenger was brought first fruits he saw him put them on his eyes and lips and then say, "0 God, as Thou hast shown us the first of it, show us the last of it.” He would then give them to any boys who were present. Baihaqi transmitted it in ad-Da'awat al-kabir.
