Sahih al-Bukhari 3019 (Book 57, Hadith 56)
Hunain, the bedouins started begging things of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) so much so that they forced him to go
under a Samura tree where his loose outer garment was snatched away. On that, Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) stood
up and said to them, “Return my garment to me. If I had as many camels as these trees, I would have
distributed them amongst you; and you will not find me a miser or a liar or a coward.”
“ أَعْطُونِي رِدَائِي، فَلَوْ كَانَ عَدَدُ هَذِهِ الْعِضَاهِ نَعَمًا لَقَسَمْتُهُ بَيْنَكُمْ، ثُمَّ لاَ تَجِدُونِي بَخِيلاً وَلاَ كَذُوبًا وَلاَ جَبَانًا ”.
