Accepting Gifts (Hadith No. 1251)

Bismillah.

Volume 2, Book 24, Number 552:

Narrated ‘Umar (radiallaahu `anhu):

Allah’s Apostle (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallam) used to give me something but I would say to him, “would you give it to a poorer and more needy one than l?” The Prophet (sallallaahu `alayhi wasallam) said to me, “Take it. If you are given something from this property without asking for it or having greed for it, take it; and if not given, do not run for it.”

Lesson: just accept a gift when it comes your way please. :)

I’m ready! :P
