أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْمَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سَعْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ بَشِيرٍ أَنَّهُ نَحَلَ ابْنَهُ غُلَامًا فَأَتَی النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يُشْهِدَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ أَکُلَّ وَلَدِکَ نَحَلْتَهُ مِثْلَ ذَا قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَارْدُدْهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 3712
It was narrated from Bashir that he gave his son a slave as a present, then he came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and he wanted the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم to bear witness to that. He said: “Have you given a similar present to all of your children?” He said: “No.” He said: “Then take (your present) back.” (Sahih).
