أَخْبَرَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْرَائِيلُ، حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو الْجُوَيْرِيَةِ الْجَرْمِيُّ، أَنَّ
مَعْنَ بْنَ يَزِيدَ حَدَّثَهُ، قَالَ: بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَا وَأَبِي وَجَدِّي، وَخَطَبَ عَلَيَّ فَأَنْكَحَنِي، وَخَاصَمْتُ إِلَيْهِ، وَكَانَ أَبِي يَزِيدُ أَخْرَجَ دَنَانِيرَ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِهَا فَوَضَعَهَا عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَجِئْتُ فَأَخَذْتُهَا، فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهَا، فَقَالَ: وَاللَّهِ مَا إِيَّاكَ أَرَدْتُ بِهَا، فَخَاصَمْتُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ:
"لَكَ مَا نَوَيْتَ يَا يَزِيدُ، وَلَكَ يَا مَعْنُ مَا أَخَذْتَ".
Sayyiduna Ma’n bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrated that I, my father, and my grandfather pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace be upon him) arranged my engagement and he himself conducted my marriage. I once brought a case before the Prophet (peace be upon him). The case was that my father Yazid took out some dinars with the intention of giving charity and placed them with a man in the mosque. I went and took those dinars from that man. When I brought them to my father, he said, “By Allah, I did not intend to give them to you (rather, I intended to give charity).” So I brought this case before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he decided, “Yazid, you have received the reward for what you intended, and Ma’n, what you have taken is now yours.”
