عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا وَهَبَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ هِبَةً فَأَثَابَهُ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ رَضِيتَ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَزَادَهُ قَالَ رَضِيتَ قَالَ لَا قَالَ فَزَادَهُ قَالَ رَضِيتَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أَتَّهِبَ هِبَةً إِلَّا مِنْ قُرَشِيٍّ أَوْ أَنْصَارِيٍّ أَوْ ثَقَفِيٍّ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a Bedouin gave a gift to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him something in return and said: "Are you pleased?" He said: "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him more and then asked: "Are you pleased now?" He said: "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him something further and said: "Are you pleased now?" He said: "Yes." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, I have intended not to accept a gift except from a Qurayshi, or an Ansari, or a Thaqafi."
