Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 4704

Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "So-and-so has a cluster (of a date palm) in my garden. That man causes me trouble, and the presence of his date cluster is burdensome to me." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent a message to call that man and said: "Sell me your cluster that is in so-and-so's garden." He said: "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then give it to me as a gift." He said: "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then sell it to me in exchange for a cluster of dates in Paradise." He said: "No, O Messenger of Allah!" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I have not seen anyone more miserly than you, except the one who is miserly with the greeting of salam."
Ahmad and al-Bazzar recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Aqil; there is criticism of him, and he has also been declared trustworthy.
