(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ زَيْدٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ : أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا وَهَبَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ هِبَةً ، فَأَثَابَهُ عَلَيْهَا ، قَالَ : " رَضِيتَ ؟ " , قَالَ : لَا , قَالَ : فَزَادَهُ ، قَالَ : " رَضِيتَ ؟ " , قَالَ : لَا , قَالَ : فَزَادَهُ ، قَالَ : " رَضِيتَ " , قَالَ : نَعَمْ , قَالَ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَقَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أَتَّهِبَ هِبَةً إِلَّا مِنْ قُرَشِيٍّ ، أَوْ أَنْصَارِيٍّ ، أَوْ ثَقَفِيٍّ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a Bedouin presented a gift to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him something in return and asked him, "Are you pleased?" He replied, "No." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him something more and asked, "Are you pleased now?" This happened three times, and on the third time, he became pleased. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Seeing this, I thought that in the future I would not accept a gift from anyone except one who is a Qurayshi, or an Ansari, or a Thaqafi."
