عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " هَذِهِ الدُّنْيَا خَضِرَةٌ حُلْوَةٌ ، فَمَنْ آتَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِطِيبِ نَفْسٍ أَوْ طِيبِ طُعْمَةٍ وَلَا إِشْرَافٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ ، وَمَنْ آتَيْنَاهُ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا بِغَيْرِ طِيبِ نَفْسٍ مِنَّا وَغَيْرِ طِيبِ طُعْمَةٍ وَإِشْرَافٍ مِنْهُ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَرِجَالُهُ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyidah Aishah al-Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This world is green and sweet. Whoever we give something to gladly, or give something pure without any greed on his part, he will be blessed in that thing. And whoever we give something to without being glad and without wishing to, while he also covets it, he will not be blessed in that thing."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.

Hadith Takhrij «أخرجه مسند أحمد برقم: 23873، وأخرجه صحيح ابن حبان برقم: 3215»
وَعَنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ حَنْطَبٍ : أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَامِرٍ بَعَثَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ بِنَفَقَةٍ وَكُسْوَةٍ ، فَقَالَتْ لِلرَّسُولِ : أَيْ بُنَيَّ ، لَا أَقْبَلُ مِنْ أَحَدٍ شَيْئًا . فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ الرَّسُولُ قَالَتْ : رُدُّوهُ عَلَيَّ . فَرَدُّوهُ . قَالَتْ : إِنِّي ذَكَرْتُ شَيْئًا قَالَهُ لِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " يَا عَائِشَةُ ، مَنْ أَعْطَاكِ عَطَاءً بِغَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَاقْبَلِيهِ ; فَإِنَّمَا هُوَ رِزْقٌ عَرَضَهُ اللَّهُ لَكِ " .
[رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ] وَرِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ الْمُطَّلِبَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ مُدَلِّسٌ ، وَاخْتُلِفَ فِي سَمَاعِهِ مِنْ عَائِشَةَ .
Al-Muttalib bin Hantab narrated: Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) sent some money for expenses and some clothing to Sayyidah Aishah al-Siddiqah (may Allah be pleased with her). Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said to the messenger: "O my son! I do not accept anything from anyone." When the messenger was leaving, Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Bring him back to me!" The people brought him back, and Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "I remembered something (which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me): 'O Aishah! When someone gives you something without your asking, accept it, for it is provision that Allah Almighty has given you.'"
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy), except that the narrator al-Muttalib bin Abdullah is a mudallis (one who conceals defects in the chain), and there is disagreement about whether he heard from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her).

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 .

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.

وَعَنْ عَائِذِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " مَنْ عَرَضَ لَهُ مِنْ هَذَا الرِّزْقِ شَيْءٌ مِنْ غَيْرِ مَسْأَلَةٍ وَلَا إِشْرَافٍ ، فَلْيَتَوَسَّعْ بِهِ فِي رِزْقِهِ ، فَإِنْ كَانَ عَنْهُ غَنِيًّا فَلْيُوَجِّهْهُ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَحْوَجُ إِلَيْهِ مِنْهُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَقَالَ : " مَنْ عُرِضَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ هَذَا الرِّزْقِ شَيْءٌ " . وَأَسْقَطَ أَحْمَدُ : " شَيْءٌ " . وَرِجَالُ أَحْمَدَ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ : سَأَلْتُ أَبِي : مَا الْإِشْرَافُ ؟ قَالَ : تَقُولُ فِي نَفْسِكَ : سَيَبْعَثُ إِلَيَّ فُلَانٌ ، سَيَصِلُنِي فَلَانٌ .
Sayyiduna A'idh bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) reports this saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): "Whoever has something of this provision come to him without asking and without greed should use it to make his means more ample. If he himself has no need of it, he should give it to someone who needs it more than he does."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir recorded it, and he (al-Tabarani) has the words: "Whoever is offered something of this provision." Ahmad did not mention the word "shay'" (something). The narrators of Ahmad are the narrators of the Sahih. Abdullah bin Ahmad said: I asked my father: "What is meant by 'ishraf' (that is, greed)?" He said: "That you think to yourself: 'Soon so-and-so will send me something,' or 'Soon so-and-so will give me something.'"
