بَابُ النَّهْي أَنْ يَرْجِعَ الرَّجُلُ فِي هِيَتِهِ إِلَّا الْوَالِدُChapter: Prohibition of taking back a gift except for a parent
Hadith 6297
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَثَلُ الَّذِي يَسْتَرِدُّ مَا وَهَبَ كَمَثَلِ الْكَلْبِ يَقِيءُ فَيَأْكُلُ مِنْهُ وَإِذَا اسْتَرَدَّ الْوَاهِبُ فَلْيُوقِفْ بِمَا اسْتَرَدَّ ثُمَّ لِيَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ مَا وَهَبَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The example of the person who takes back a gift he has given is like that of a dog who vomits and then licks it up. When the giver of a gift demands its return, he should be made to stand and asked the reason for taking it back, and then the thing he had given as a gift should be returned to him.
