Sunan an-Nasa’i: Book 45, Hadith 73
It was narrated from ‘Aishah that: the Messenger of Allah sent Abu Jahm bin Hudhaifah to collect Zakah and a man argued with him about his Sadaqah, so Abu Jahm struck him. They came to the prophet and he said: “Diyah, O Messenger of Allah.” He said: “You will have such and such,” but they did not accept it. The Messenger of Allah said: “You will have such and such,” and they accepted it. The Messenger of Allah said: “I am going to address the people and tell them that you accepted it.” They said: “Yes.” So the Prophet addressed (the people) and said: “Those people came to me seeking compensation, and I offered them such as such, and they accepted.” They said: “No.” The Muhajirun wanted to attack them, but the Messenger of Allah ordered them to refrain, so they refrained. Then he called them and said: “Do you accept?” They said:” Yes.” He said: “I and going to address the people and tell them that you accepted it.” They said: “Yes.” So the Prophet addressed (the people), then he said: “Do you accept?” They said: “Yes.”
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بَعَثَ أَبَا جَهْمِ بْنَ حُذَيْفَةَ مُصَدِّقًا فَلاَحَّهُ رَجُلٌ فِي صَدَقَتِهِ فَضَرَبَهُ أَبُو جَهْمٍ فَأَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ الْقَوَدُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ ” لَكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا ” . فَلَمْ يَرْضَوْا بِهِ فَقَالَ ” لَكُمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا ” . فَرَضُوا بِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ” إِنِّي خَاطِبٌ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَمُخْبِرُهُمْ بِرِضَاكُمْ ” . قَالُوا نَعَمْ . فَخَطَبَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ” إِنَّ هَؤُلاَءِ أَتَوْنِي يُرِيدُونَ الْقَوَدَ فَعَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَرَضُوا ” . قَالُوا لاَ . فَهَمَّ الْمُهَاجِرُونَ بِهِمْ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يَكُفُّوا فَكَفُّوا ثُمَّ دَعَاهُمْ قَالَ ” أَرَضِيتُمْ ” . قَالُوا نَعَمْ . قَالَ ” فَإِنِّي خَاطِبٌ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَمُخْبِرُهُمْ بِرِضَاكُمْ ” . قَالُوا نَعَمْ . فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ ثُمَّ قَالَ ” أَرَضِيتُمْ ” . قَالُوا نَعَمْ .
