موطا امام مالك رواية يحييٰ
Muwatta Imam Malik (Riwayat Yahya)
كتاب الرهونBook: On the Explanation of Pledges (Mortgages)
بَابُ الِاعْتِصَارِ فِي الصَّدَقَةِWithholding in Charity
Hadith 1456Q2
قَالَ مَالِكٌ : الْأَمْرُ الْمُجْتَمَعُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَنَا فِيمَنْ نَحَلَ وَلَدَهُ نُحْلًا، أَوْ أَعْطَاهُ عَطَاءً لَيْسَ بِصَدَقَةٍ. إِنَّ لَهُ أَنْ يَعْتَصِرَ ذَلِكَ. مَا لَمْ يَسْتَحْدِثِ الْوَلَدُ دَيْنًا يُدَايِنُهُ النَّاسُ بِهِ. وَيَأْمَنُونَهُ عَلَيْهِ. مِنْ أَجْلِ ذَلِكَ الْعَطَاءِ الَّذِي أَعْطَاهُ أَبُوهُ. فَلَيْسَ لِأَبِيهِ أَنْ يَعْتَصِرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا، بَعْدَ أَنْ تَكُونَ عَلَيْهِ الدُّيُونُ. ¤
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: In our view, this ruling is based on consensus, that if a person gives something to his son out of love, and not as charity, then he can take it back, as long as the son has not started dealing based on the ownership of that property, and people have not started lending him money relying on that property. But when this happens, then he cannot take it back.
