Chapter: What has been reported regarding not accepting gifts from polytheists
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 6280 — What has been reported regarding not
عَنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ حِمَارٍ الْمُجَاشِعِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَكَانَتْ بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَعْرِفَةٌ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُبْعَثَ فَلَمَّا بُعِثَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَهْدَى لَهُ هَدِيَّةً قَالَ أَحْسِبُهَا إِبِلًا فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَهَا وَقَالَ إِنَّا لَا نَقْبَلُ زَبْدَ الْمُشْرِكِينَ قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا زَبْدُ الْمُشْرِكِينَ قَالَ رِفْدُهُمْ هَدِيَّتُهُمْ
Hasan Basri narrates that there was an acquaintance between Iyad bin Hammad Mujashi'i and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) before the Prophethood. Then, when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was granted Prophethood, Iyad presented a gift to him. I think it was in the form of a camel, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) refused to accept it and said: We do not accept gifts from polytheists. Ibn Awn said: What is meant by the zabad of polytheists? Hasan Basri said: Their gifts and offerings.
