Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 9150 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent his father

حَدَّثَنَا مَسْعَدَةُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، ثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ صَدَقَةَ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ الْحَارِثِيِّ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ . عَنْ جَدِّهِ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - بَعَثَ أَبَاهُ أَبَا حَثْمَةَ خَارِصًا ، فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ أَبَا حَثْمَةَ قَدْ زَادَ عَلَيَّ ، فَدَعَا أَبَا حَثْمَةَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : إِنَّ ابْنَ عَمِّكَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّكَ قَدْ زِدْتَ عَلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ تَرَكْتُ عَرِيَّةَ أَهْلِهِ ، وَمَا يُطْعِمُ الْمَسَاكِينَ ، وَمَا يُصِيبُهُ الرِّيحُ . فَقَالَ : I " قَدْ زَادَكَ ابْنُ عَمِّكَ وَأَنْصَفَ I " .
لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ أَبِي حَثْمَةَ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Abi Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent his father, Sayyiduna Abu Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him), as an assessor (kharis, estimating the yield of the fruit). A man came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Hathmah has overcharged me (in the assessment)." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) called Abu Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: "Your cousin claims that you have assessed him too much." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I left out the 'ariyyah dates for (the food of) his household, and what he feeds to the poor, and what (fruit) the wind brings down, (I left that out as well)." So he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Your cousin has given you more and has been fair."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Abi Hathmah (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain, and Ibrahim bin al-Mundhir (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
