حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ کَثِيرٍ الْعَبْدِيُّ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ شَيْخٍ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ عَنْ حَکِيمِ بْنِ حِزَامٍ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعَثَ مَعَهُ بِدِينَارٍ يَشْتَرِي لَهُ أُضْحِيَّةً فَاشْتَرَاهَا بِدِينَارٍ وَبَاعَهَا بِدِينَارَيْنِ فَرَجَعَ فَاشْتَرَی لَهُ أُضْحِيَّةً بِدِينَارٍ وَجَائَ بِدِينَارٍ إِلَی النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَدَعَا لَهُ أَنْ يُبَارَکَ لَهُ فِي تِجَارَتِهِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 3386
Narrated Hakim ibn Hizam: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent with him a dinar to buy a sacrificial animal for him. He bought a sheep for a dinar, sold it for two and then returned and bought a sacrificial animal for a dinar for him and brought the (extra) dinar to the Prophet ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ gave it as alms (sadaqah) and invoked blessing on him in his trading.
