4813. It was narrated from 'Umärah bin Ghaziyyah: "A man from my people narrated to me, from Jabir bin 'Abdulläh, who said: 'The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever is given something and can afford it, let him give something in return, and if he cannot afford it, let him express his appreciation for him, for if he expresses his appreciation for him, he is grateful to him, but whoever conceals it, he has shown ingratitude." (a 'if) AbU Dãwud said: Yahya bin AyyUb reported it from 'Umãrah bin Ghaziyyah, from ShurahbIl, from Jabir. AbU Dawud said: He is Shurahbil, meaning "a man from my people", it is as if they disliked him so they did not name him.

4813 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرٌ، حَدَّثَنِي عُمَارَةُ بْنُ غَزِيَّةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي رَجُلٌ، مِنْ قَوْمِي عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: « مَنْ أُعْطِيَ عَطَاءً فَوَجَدَ فَلْيَجْزِ بِهِ، فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَلْيُثْنِ بِهِ، فَمَنْ أَثْنَى بِهِ فَقَدْ شَكَرَهُ، وَمَنْ كَتَمَهُ فَقَدْ كَفَرَهُ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: رَوَاهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ غَزِيَّةَ، عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «وَهُوَ شُرَحْبِيلُ يَعْنِي رَجُلًا مِنْ قَوْمِي كَأَنَّهُمْ كَرِهُوهُ فَلَمْ يُسَمُّوهُ»
