[4279] 18 - (...) It was narrated that Tamim bin Tarafah said: “I heard ‘Adiyy bin Hâtim say, when a man came to him asking him for a hundred Dirham: ‘Are you asking me for a hundred Dirham when I am the son of Hâtim? By Allâh, I will not give it to you.’ Then he said: ‘Were it not that I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: “Whoever swears an oath, then sees something better than it, let him do that which is better.”’
