حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ وَکِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ ح و حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ طُلِّقَتْ خَالَتِي فَأَرَادَتْ أَنْ تَجُدَّ نَخْلَهَا فَزَجَرَهَا رَجُلٌ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ إِلَيْهِ فَأَتَتْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ بَلَی فَجُدِّي نَخْلَکِ فَإِنَّکِ عَسَی أَنْ تَصَدَّقِي أَوْ تَفْعَلِي مَعْرُوفًا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2034
It was narrated that Jâbir bin ‘AbduIlâh said: “My maternal aunt was divorced, and she wanted to collect the harvest from her date-palm trees. A man rebuked her for going out to the trees. She went to the Prophet , who said: ‘No, go and collect the harvest from your trees, for perhaps you will give some in charity or do a good deed with it.’” (Sahih)
