Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 15, Hadith 35

Isma’il bin Abi Rabi’ah Al-Makhzumi narrated from his father, from his grandfather, that : the Prophet (ﷺ) borrowed thirty or forty thousand from him, when he fought at Hunain. When he came back he paid the loan, then the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: ‘May Allah (SWT) bless your family and your wealth for you. The reward for lending is repayment and words of paradise.”

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ الْمَخْزُومِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم اسْتَسْلَفَ مِنْهُ حِينَ غَزَا حُنَيْنًا ثَلاَثِينَ أَوْ أَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفًا فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ قَضَاهَا إِيَّاهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏
“‏ بَارَكَ اللَّهُ لَكَ فِي أَهْلِكَ وَمَالِكَ إِنَّمَا جَزَاءُ السَّلَفِ الْوَفَاءُ وَالْحَمْدُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏

Sunan Ibn Majah: Book 15, Hadith 35
Hasan (Darussalam)

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan Ibn Majah collection of hadiths. Within the esteemed group of the six canonical hadith collections, Sunan Ibn Majah occupies a unique position. Compiled by the scholar Ibn Majah, who died in 273 AH, this work assembles approximately 4,000 hadiths addressing a comprehensive set of topics. These narratives provide vital insights into Islamic faith, the proper observance of rituals, the cultivation of good character, and complex social issues. Its reputation, however, is nuanced. It is universally respected yet simultaneously acknowledged to have a higher number of weak narrations compared to Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and the other Sunan works. Consequently, scholars approach it with a discerning eye, but it is nonetheless a cornerstone text for academic reference.
