Majma al-Zawaid 4558 — One who receives something without asking
وَعَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ قَالَ : سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ أَمْوَالِ السُّلْطَانِ قَالَ : " مَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنْهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ وَلَا إِشْرَافٍ فَخُذْهُ وَتَمَوَّلْهُ " .
وَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ : لَا بَأْسَ بِهَا مَا لَمْ يَرْحَلْ إِلَيْهَا أَوْ يُشْرِفْ لَهَا .
وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ : " مَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنَّا مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَكُلْهُ " .
رَوَاهُ كُلَّهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ رَجُلٌ لَمْ يُسَمَّ .

Sayyiduna Abu al-Darda' (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about wealth received from the ruler. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If Allah Almighty has given it to you without your asking and without greed, then take it and increase your wealth with it." Al-Hasan said: There is no harm in it, so long as the person has not travelled to seek that wealth, nor has greed for it in his heart. In one narration the words are: "Whatever Allah Almighty gives you through any of us without your asking, consume it (that is, take it)." Ahmad recorded all these narrations; its chain contains a narrator who has not been named.
