2775. Narrated Ibn 'Umar رضي الله عنهما: Once 'Umar gave a horse in charity to be used in Allāh's Cause (Jihād – holy fighting). It had been given to him by Allāh's Messenger ﷺ. 'Umar gave it to a man in charity to use it in Allāh's Cause Then 'Umar was informed that the man has put that horse for sale, so he asked Allāh's Messenger ﷺ whether he could buy it. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ replied, "You should neither buy nor take back what you have given in charity."

2775 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: أَنَّ عُمَرَ حَمَلَ عَلَى فَرَسٍ لَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَعْطَاهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيَحْمِلَ عَلَيْهَا رَجُلًا، فَأُخْبِرَ عُمَرُ أَنَّهُ قَدْ وَقَفَهَا يَبِيعُهَا، فَسَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَبْتَاعَهَا، فَقَالَ: «لاَ تَبْتَعْهَا، وَلاَ تَرْجِعَنَّ فِي صَدَقَتِكَ»
