حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَکْرِ بْنُ خَلَّادٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا وَکِيعٌ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِنَّمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَأَنْ يَمْنَحَ أَحَدُکُمْ أَخَاهُ الْأَرْضَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ خَرَاجًا مَعْلُومًا
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 2464
It was narrated from Tawus that Ibn Abbas told that the Messenger of Allah merely said: "For one of you to give (land) to his brother is better for him than if he were to take a set amount in rent for it."
