Hadith 2327

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ خَلِيلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَيَّ فَقَرَّبْتُ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامًا لَيْسَ فِيهِ لَحْمٌ، فَقَالَ: "أَلَمْ أَرَ لَكُمْ قِدْرًا مَنْصُوبَةً ؟"قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، هَذَا لَحْمٌ تُصُدِّقَ بِهِ عَلَى بَرِيرَةَ، فَأَهْدَتْ لَنَا، قَالَ: "هُوَ عَلَيْهَا صَدَقَةٌ، وَهُوَ لَنَا مِنْهَا هَدِيَّةٌ"، وَكَانَ لَهَا زَوْجٌ، فَلَمَّا عُتِقَتْ، خُيِّرَتْ.
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came to me and I presented food to him in which there was no meat. He (peace be upon him) said: "Do I not see a pot of meat cooking for you?" I replied: O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! That meat was given to Barirah as charity, and Barirah gave it to us as a gift, and you do not eat from charity. He (peace be upon him) said: "It was charity for her and a gift for us from Barirah." And her (Barirah's) husband was there; when she was freed, she was given the choice regarding her husband.
