حَدَّثَنَا الْحَکَمُ بْنُ مُوسَی حَدَّثَنَا هِقْلٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زِيَادٍ عَنْ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ عَنْ عَطَائٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ کَانَ لِرِجَالٍ فُضُولُ أَرَضِينَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ کَانَتْ لَهُ فَضْلُ أَرْضٍ فَلْيَزْرَعْهَا أَوْ لِيَمْنَحْهَا أَخَاهُ فَإِنْ أَبَی فَلْيُمْسِکْ أَرْضَهُ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 3918
Jabir b. Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) as saying: He who has land should cultivate it himself, but if he does not cultivate it himself, then he should let his brother cultivate it.
