Mishkat al-Masabih #2914

Business Transactions

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

وَعَن أبي سعيد الْخُدْرِيّ: أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَجَدَ دِينَارًا فَأتى بِهِ فَاطِمَة رَضِي الله عَنْهَا فَسَأَلَ عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَذَا رِزْقُ اللَّهِ» فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأكل عَليّ وَفَاطِمَة رَضِي الله عَنْهُمَا فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَتَتِ امْرَأَةٌ تَنْشُدُ الدِّينَارَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «يَا عَلِيُّ أَدِّ الدِّينَارَ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Abu Sa'id al-Khudri said that ‘Ali b. Abu Talib found a dinar and after taking it to Fatima asked God’s Messenger about it. He replied that this was God’s provision, and God’s Messenger, ‘Ali and Fatima ate food which was bought with it. But afterwards a woman came crying out about the dinar and God’s Messenger said, “Pay the dinar, ‘Ali.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.
