2587. Narrated 'Āmir: I heard An-Nu'mān bin Bashīr رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا on the pulpit saying, "My father gave me a gift but 'Amra bint Rawāḥa (my mother) said that she would not agree to it unless he made Allāh's Messenger ﷺ as a witness to it. So, my father went to Allāh's Messenger ﷺ and said, 'I have given a gift to my son from 'Amra bint Rawāḥa, but she ordered me to make you as a witness to it, O Allāh's Messenger!' Allāh's Messenger ﷺ asked, 'Have you given (the like of it) to everyone of your sons?' He replied in the negative. Allāh's Messenger ﷺ said, 'Be afraid of Allāh, and be just to your children.' My father then returned and took back his gift."

2587 - حَدَّثَنَا حَامِدُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النُّعْمَانَ بْنَ بَشِيرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، وَهُوَ عَلَى المِنْبَرِ يَقُولُ: أَعْطَانِي أَبِي عَطِيَّةً، فَقَالَتْ عَمْرَةُ بِنْتُ رَوَاحَةَ: لاَ أَرْضَى حَتَّى تُشْهِدَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّي أَعْطَيْتُ ابْنِي مِنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ رَوَاحَةَ عَطِيَّةً، فَأَمَرَتْنِي أَنْ أُشْهِدَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: «أَعْطَيْتَ سَائِرَ وَلَدِكَ مِثْلَ هَذَا؟»، قَالَ: لاَ، قَالَ: «فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَاعْدِلُوا بَيْنَ أَوْلاَدِكُمْ»، قَالَ: فَرَجَعَ فَرَدَّ عَطِيَّتَهُ
