Whosoever is given a gift while some people are sitting with him, he only has the right to have it. Ibn 'Abbas L4i is reported to have said that the people sitting with that person will be his co-owners. But this report is not confirmed by an authentic narration.

2609. Narrated Abū Hurairah: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: The Prophet ﷺ took a camel of a certain age from somebody on credit. Its owner came and demanded it back (harshly). The Prophet ﷺ said, “No doubt, he who has a right, has the full right to demand it.” Then the Prophet ﷺ gave him an older and better camel than his camel and said, “The best amongst you is he who repays his debts in the most handsome way.”

Arabic text

2609 - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ مُقَاتِلٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّهُ أَخَذَ سِنًّا، فَجَاءَ صَاحِبُهُ يَتَقَاضَاهُ، فَقَالُوا لَهُ: فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ لِصَاحِبِ الحَقِّ مَقَالًا»، ثُمَّ قَضَاهُ أَفْضَلَ مِنْ سِنِّهِ، وَقَالَ: «أَفْضَلُكُمْ أَحْسَنُكُمْ قَضَاءً»
