سنن نسائی · Hadith 3730
It was narrated from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: “The likeness of the one who takes back his gift is that of a dog which vomits, then goes back to its vomit.” (One of the narrators) Al Awza’l said: “I heard him narrating this Hadith to ‘Ata’ bin Abi Rabah.” (Sahih)
