1689. Anas narrated: "When the Verse: 'By no means shall you attain Al-Birr, unless you spend of that which you love'[1] was revealed, Abū Ṭalḥah said: 'O Messenger of Allāh! I see that our Lord is asking us for our wealth, so I make you my witness that I have given my property at Ariḥā' to Him.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Give it to your relatives,' so he distributed it between Ḥassān bin Ṭhābit and Ubayy bin Ka'b." (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: And it was conveyed to me from Al-Anṣārī, (that is) Muḥammad Ibn 'Abdullāh, who said: "Abū Ṭalḥah is: Zaid bin Sahl bin Aswad bin Ḥarām bin 'Amr bin Zaid Manāh bin 'Adī bin 'Amr bin Mālik bin An-Najjār. And Ḥassān is Ibn Ṭhābit bin Al-Mundhir bin Ḥarām — so their lineage meets after three generations, at Ḥarām. And Ubayy is Ibn Ka'b bin Qais bin 'Atīq bin Zaid bin Mu'āwiyah bin 'Amr bin Mālik bin An-Najjār. So Ḥassān, Abū Ṭalḥah and Ubayy — all of them (their lineage) are together at 'Amr. And between Ubayy and Abū Ṭalḥah are six generations (before they meet)."
