Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 6826

Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) were struck by hunger in the blessed time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Two men came and looked over the wall of a garden, and there were date palms in the garden. One of them jumped over the wall and went in, while the other was afraid. The one who went in started eating dates, and when he was full, he began gathering them into his garment. The owner of the garden came, snatched his garment from him and tied him to a date palm; he took a stick and beat the man with it. Then he took him to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "I found this man in my garden eating, and when he was full, he began gathering dates into his garment." The man said: "O Messenger of Allah! My companion and I came, and we were both hungry. I went down into the garden, while my companion was afraid. I ate dates and took some for my companion, but then this man came and treated me in such and such a way." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go and give him his garment, and measure out for him one wasq in place of the beating you gave him." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Ibn Majah has also recorded a hadith from this Companion, other than this one.
Al-Tabarani recorded it; its chain contains a narrator, Abdullah bin Aradah, whom Abu Dawud declared thiqah (trustworthy), while a group declared him da'if (weak).
