Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 24701 — A man who sends wealth with another

It is narrated from Mujahid that a man sent a purse of dinars to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her), on which was written that it was for the Mother of the Believers, Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). When the people came near Madinah, rain fell upon them and the purse was lost. Then those people went on and came to Madinah. The man looked at the letter, then made up dinars like those and wrote the same on them, then he brought the letter and the purse to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). Later some people passed by that place and found there the purse on which the writing was, and they brought it to Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her). She sent those dinars to the first man and said to him: "Tell me about these dinars." He said to her: "The whole matter is written in the letter." Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Tell me the truth," and then he told her what had really happened. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "You wanted to feed me that which is not lawful for me?"
