English translation
3945. Abū Hurairah narrated that a Bedouin gave a young female camel as a gift to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, so he in turn for that, gave him six young female camels. But he was not satisfied with that, so when that news reached the Prophet ﷺ, he praised Allāh, and expressed gratitude to Him, then said: ‘Indeed so-and-so gave a camel to me as a gift, so I reciprocated for that with six young she-camels, yet he became upset. So I decided that I would not accept a gift except from a Quraishi, or Anṣārī, or Dawsī.’” (Hasan) [Abū ‘Eisā said:] There is more stated in this Hadīth. He said: This Hadīth was reported through other routes from Abū Hurairah. Yazīd bin Hārūn narrates from Ayyūb Abū Al-‘Alā’, and he is Ayyūb bin Miskīn, and he is called Ibn Abī Miskīn. And perhaps this Hadīth which he reported from Abū Ayyūb from Sa‘eed Al-Maqbūrī is from Abū Ayyūb Al-‘Alā’, who is Abū Ayyūb Miskīn, and also called Ibn Abī Miskīn.[1]
