Riyad as-SalihinHadith Number 1613
وعن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال: حملت على فرس في سبيل الله فأضاعه الذي كان عنده، فأردت أن أشتريه، وظننت أنه يبيعه برخص، فسألت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال: "لا تشتره ولا تعد في صدقتك وإن أعطاكه بدرهم، فإن العائد في صدقته كالعائد في قيئه" ((متفق عليه)). قوله: "حملت على فرس في سبيل الله" معناه: تصدقت به على بعض المجاهدين.
'Umar bin Al-Khattab Narrated from:
I donated a horse in the way of Allah. Its new possessor did not treat it properly. I made my mind to buy it because I thought that he would sell it at a cheap price (now that it became weak and emaciated). I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about it, whereupon he said, "Do not buy it and do not get back your charity, for one who gets back the charity is like a dog that eats its own vomit."[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
