English translation

3734. It was narrated from Ibn Juraij, from Al-Hasan bin Muslim, from Tawūs that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "It is not permissible for anyone to give a gift then take it back, except a father." Tawūs said: "I used to hear the boys say: 'O you who goes back to his vomit!' But I did not realize that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ had said this as parable, until we heard that he used to say: 'The likeness of the one who gives a gift then takes it back, is that of the dogs which eats its vomit.'" (Sahih)

Arabic text

3704 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَخْلَدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ طَاوُسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَا يَحِلُّ لِأَحَدٍ يَهَبُ هِبَةً ثُمَّ يَعُودُ فِيهَا إِلَّا الْوَالِدَ - قَالَ طَاوُسٌ: كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُ الصِّبْيَانَ يَقُولُونَ: يَا عَائِدًا فِي قَيْئِهِ، وَلَمْ أَشْعُرْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ضَرَبَ ذَلِكَ مَثَلًا، حَتَّى بَلَغَنَا أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ -، مَثَلُ الَّذِي يَهَبُ الْهِبَةَ ثُمَّ يَعُودُ فِيهَا - وَذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا - كَمَثَلِ الْكَلْبِ يَأْكُلُ قَيْئَهُ "
