حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَخِي الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَمِّهِ أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ جَائَتْ هِنْدٌ بِنْتُ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَاللَّهِ مَا کَانَ عَلَی ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ خِبَائٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَذِلُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَائِکَ وَمَا أَصْبَحَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَی ظَهْرِ الْأَرْضِ خِبَائٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَعِزُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَائِکَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَيْضًا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ مِسِّيکٌ فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ حَرَجٌ مِنْ أَنْ أُطْعِمَ مِنْ الَّذِي لَهُ عِيَالَنَا فَقَالَ لَهَا لَا إِلَّا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 4480
A'isha reported that Hind came to Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and said: Messenger of Allah, by Allah, there was no other household upon the surface of the earth than your household about which I cherished Allah bringing disgrace upon it, (and now) there is no other household upon the surface of the earth than your household about which I cherish Allah granting it honour. Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: It is so, by Him in Whose Hand is my life She said: Allah's Messenger, Abu Sufyan is a niggardly person. Is there any harm for me if I spend upon his children out of his wealth without his permission? Thereupon Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said: There is no harm for you if you spend upon them what is reasonable.
