Abu Hurairah (RA) reported that Hasan bin 'Ali took one of the dates of the sadaqa and put it in his mouth, whereupon the Prophet (ﷺ) said: Leave it, leave it, throw it; don't you know that we do not eat the sadaqah?
This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'bahh with the same chain of transmitters (and the words of the Holy Prophet) are: "Sadaqa is not permissible for us."
Abu Hurairah (RA) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: I go back to my family and I find a date lying on my bed. I then take it up to eat it, but then I throw it away fearing that it may be a Sadaqa.
Out of so many ahadith which Hammam bin Munabbih narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah (RA) from the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) one is this that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: I go back to my family and I find a date lying on my bed or in my house, and I take it up to eat it, but then I throw it away fearing that it may be a Sadaqa or from Sadaqa.
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) found a date lying on the path and said: If it were not out of Sadaqa, I would have eaten it.
Anas bin Malik (RA) reported that the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) found a date and said: Were it not (that I fear) it may be part of sadaqah, I would have eaten it.
