Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 6100 — One who is appointed to buy something
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أُتِيَ بِصَدَقَةٍ قَالَ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِصَدَقَةِ مَالِ أَبِي فَقَالَ اللَّهُمَّ صَلِّ عَلَى آلِ أَبِي أَوْفَى
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when charity was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he would pray for the giver in this way: O Allah! Have mercy on this man. Once, I brought charity from my father's wealth, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Allah! Have mercy on the family of Abu Awfa.
