Hadith 9267

حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : إن رسولَ الله صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِتَمْرٍ مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَأَمَرَ فِيهِ بِأَمْرٍ ، فَحَمَلَ الْحَسَنَ أَوِ الْحُسَيْنَ عَلَى عَاتِقِهِ ، فَجَعَلَ لُعَابُهُ يَسِيلُ عَلَيْهِ ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا هُوَ يَلُوكُ تَمْرَةً ، فَحَرَّكَ خَدَّهُ , وَقَالَ : " أَلْقِهَا يَا بُنَيَّ ، أَمَا شَعَرْتَ أَنَّ آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ لَا يَأْكُلُونَ الصَّدَقَةَ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that dates of charity were brought to the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave a command regarding them, and seated either Hasan (may Allah be pleased with him) or Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) on his shoulder. His saliva began to flow onto the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) looked up and saw a date in his mouth. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) put his hand in and took the date out of his mouth and said: Do you not know that the family of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) does not eat charity?
