2758. Narrated Anas رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: When the Holy Verse: 'By no means shall you attain Al-Birr (piety, righteousness, it means here Allāh's Reward i.e., Paradise), unless you spend of that which you love...', (V.3:92) was revealed, Abū Ṭalḥa went to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and said, "O Allāh's Messenger! Allāh, the Blessed, the Superior states in His Book: 'By no means shall you attain Al-Birr, unless you spend of that which you love...', (V.3:92) and the most beloved property to me is Bairuhā' (which was a garden where Allāh's Messenger ﷺ used to go to sit in its shade and drink from its water).(1) I give it to Allāh and His Messenger ﷺ hoping for Allāh's Reward in the Hereafter. So, O Allāh's Messenger! Use it as Allāh orders you to use it." Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, "Bravo! O Abū Ṭalha, it is fruitful property. We have accepted it from you and now we return it to you. Distribute it amongst your relatives." So, Abū Ṭalha distributed it amongst his relatives, amongst whom were Ubaī and Ḥassān. When Ḥassān sold his share of that garden to Mu'awiya, he was asked, "How do you sell Abū Ṭalha's Ṣadaqa?" He replied, "Why should not I sell a Ṣā' of dates for a Ṣā' of money?"(2) The garden was situated in the courtyard of the palace of Bānī Jadīla built by Mu'awiya.

2758 - وَقَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ: أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ العَزِيزِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ لاَ أَعْلَمُهُ إِلَّا عَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ: {لَنْ تَنَالُوا البِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ} [آل عمران: 92] جَاءَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فِي كِتَابِهِ: {لَنْ تَنَالُوا البِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ} [آل عمران: 92] وَإِنَّ أَحَبَّ أَمْوَالِي إِلَيَّ بَيْرُحَاءَ، قَالَ: - وَكَانَتْ حَدِيقَةً كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْخُلُهَا، وَيَسْتَظِلُّ بِهَا وَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائِهَا -، فَهِيَ إِلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَرْجُو بِرَّهُ وَذُخْرَهُ، فَضَعْهَا أَيْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَيْثُ أَرَاكَ اللَّهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «بَخْ يَا أَبَا طَلْحَةَ ذَلِكَ مَالٌ رَابِحٌ، قَبِلْنَاهُ مِنْكَ، وَرَدَدْنَاهُ عَلَيْكَ، فَاجْعَلْهُ فِي الأَقْرَبِينَ»، فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهِ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ عَلَى ذَوِي رَحِمِهِ، قَالَ: وَكَانَ مِنْهُمْ أُبَيٌّ، وَحَسَّانُ، قَالَ: وَبَاعَ حَسَّانُ حِصَّتَهُ مِنْهُ مِنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ، فَقِيلَ لَهُ: تَبِيعُ صَدَقَةَ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، فَقَالَ: أَلاَ أَبِيعُ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ بِصَاعٍ مِنْ دَرَاهِمَ، قَالَ: وَكَانَتْ تِلْكَ الحَدِيقَةُ فِي مَوْضِعِ قَصْرِ بَنِي حُدَيْلَةَ الَّذِي بَنَاهُ مُعَاوِيَةُ
