Sayyiduna Abbad bin Sharahil (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: "My paternal uncle and I set out for Madinah, and I was struck by severe hunger. I entered an orchard where the crops had ripened, and I began rubbing the ears (of grain) and eating. Then the owner of the orchard came, beat me and took my cloak. I complained about him to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said (to the owner): 'You did not feed him when he was hungry, nor did you teach him (gently) when he was ignorant. Return his cloak to him.'"
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "No one narrated this hadith from Sufyan bin Husayn except Umar bin Ali. Sufyan bin Husayn narrated it by way of 'from Abu Bishr, from Abbad bin Sharahil', and Shu'bah also narrated it 'from Abu Bishr, from Abbad bin Sharahil'."
