حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ الْجُمَحِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ کَانَ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ فَإِنْ قِيلَ هَدِيَّةٌ أَکَلَ مِنْهَا وَإِنْ قِيلَ صَدَقَةٌ لَمْ يَأْکُلْ مِنْهَا
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 2491
Umm 'Atiyya, said: The Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) sent me some mutton of sadaqa. I sent a piece out of that to 'A'isha. When the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) came to 'A'isha, he said: Have you anything with you (to eat)? She said: Nothing, except only that mutton sent to us by Nusaiba (the kunya of Umm 'Atiyya) which you had sent to her. Whereupon he said: It has reached its proper place.
