حديث عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: جَاءَتْ هِنْدُ بِنْتُ عُتْبَةَ، قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا كَانَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَاءٍ، أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ يَذِلُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبَائِكَ، ثُمَّ مَا أَصْبَحَ الْيَوْمَ عَلَى ظَهْرِ الأَرْضِ أَهْلُ خِبَاءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ يَعِزُّوا مِنْ أَهْلِ خِبائِكَ، ⦗١٩٤⦘ قَالَ: وَأَيْضًا وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ مِسِّيكٌ، فَهَلْ عَلَيَّ حَرَجٌ أَنْ أُطْعِمَ مِنَ الَّذِي لَهُ عِيَالَنَا قَالَ: لَا أُرَاهُ إِلَاّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ.
A'isha Narrated from:
Hind bint ‘Utbah came and said, “O Allâh’s Messenger! (Before I embraced Islâm) there was no family on the surface of the earth I wished to see in degradation more than your family, but today there is no family on the surface of the earth I wish to see honoured more than I did yours.” The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “I thought similarly, by Him in Whose Hand my life is!”She further said, “O Allâh’s Messenger! Abû Sufyân is a miser, so is it sinful of me to feed my children from his property?” He said, “I do not allow it unless you take for your needs what is just and reasonable.” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 168 (C), Vol. 5 )
