عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبَّادَ بْنَ شُرَحْبِيلَ وَكَانَ مِنَّا مِنْ بَنِي غُبَرَ قَالَ أَصَابَتْنَا سَنَةٌ فَأَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَدَخَلْتُ حَائِطًا مِنْ حِيطَانِهَا فَأَخَذْتُ سُنْبُلًا فَفَرَكْتُهُ وَأَكَلْتُ مِنْهُ وَحَمَلْتُ فِي ثَوْبِي فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُ الْحَائِطِ فَضَرَبَنِي وَأَخَذَ ثَوْبِي فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ ((مَا عَلَّمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ جَاهِلًا وَلَا أَطْعَمْتَهُ إِذْ كَانَ سَاغِبًا أَوْ جَائِعًا)) فَرَدَّ عَلَيَّ الثَّوْبَ وَأَمَرَ لِي بِنِصْفِ وَسْقٍ أَوْ وَسْقٍ
Narrated from Sayyiduna ‘Abad bin Sharhabil (may Allah be pleased with him), who was from Banu Ghubar, he says: We were afflicted by famine, so I came to Madinah and entered one of its gardens. I found an ear of corn and took out some grains from it. I ate some grains and gathered some in my garment. Meanwhile, the owner of the garden arrived, he beat me and snatched my garment. I came (with my complaint) to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and told him the whole matter. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said (to the owner of the garden): He was ignorant, you did not teach him, and he was hungry, you did not feed him. So he returned my garment to me and also gave me one or half a wasq of food.
