It is narrated from Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that there was a man whose nickname was "Himar" (donkey). He used to present skins of ghee and skins of honey to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) as gifts. Then, when the real owner of these goods (the trader) came to demand the price from him, he would bring him to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and say: "O Messenger of Allah! Give this man the price of his goods." At this the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would only smile and give an order concerning him, and the price would be paid to him. One day he was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) having drunk wine, and a man said: "O Allah, curse him! How often he is brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (for this offence)!" The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not curse him, for he loves Allah and His Messenger."
