في الرجل يكلم الرجل في الشيء فيهدي لهIf a Person Talks with Another and Then Gives a Gift Because of It
Hadith 22137
٢٢١٣٧ - حدثنا أبو بكر قال: حدثنا أبو الأحوص عن كليب بن (وائل) (١) قال: قلت لابن عمر: أتاني دهقان عظيم الخراج فقال: (تقبلني) (٢) من العامل، لا ⦗٤٦٩⦘ أتقبله (لأُعطي) (٣) عنه شيئًا إلا ليؤمنه عامله ويضطرب في حوائجه (٤)، فلم ألبث إلا قليلًا حتى أتاني بصحيفتي (٥)، فقلت: جزاك اللَّه خيرًا، وحملني على دابة (وأعطاني دراهم) (٦) وكساني، فقال: أرأيت (٧) لو لم (تقبله) (٨) (أكان) (٩) يعطيك؟ (قلت: لا) (١٠)، قال: لا، (يصلح) (١١) لك (١٢).
Hazrat Kulayb bin Wa'il (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that I said to Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them): A villager came to me who owed a lot of tax. He requested me to intercede with the official on his behalf. I did not intercede for him in order to receive any gift or benefit from him, but only so that the official would trust the villager and fulfill his needs. Shortly after, he came to me with my letter, said "Jazak Allahu Khairan," seated me on a mount, gave me dirhams, and clothed me. Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) said: What do you think—if you had not interceded for him, would he have given you this? I replied, No. He (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then this is not right or proper for you.
