English narration

Narrated by عائشة بنت أبي بكر الصديق

Narrated Aishah: Hind, the mother of Muawiyah, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: Abu Sufyan is a stingy person. He does not give me as much (money) as suffices me and my children. Is there any harm to me if I take something from his property ? He said: Take as much as suffices you and your children according to the custom.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ هِنْدًا أُمَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ ، جَاءَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : "

إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ ، رَجُلٌ شَحِيحٌ ، وَإِنَّهُ لَا يُعْطِينِي مَا يَكْفِينِي وَبَنِيَّ ، فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ مَالِهِ شَيْئًا ؟ ، قَالَ : خُذِي مَا يَكْفِيكِ وَبَنِيكِ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ

" .
