حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ بُكَيْرِ بْنِ الأَشَجِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، أَنَّ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، وَجَدَ دِينَارًا فَأَتَى بِهِ فَاطِمَةَ فَسَأَلَتْ عَنْهُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ‏"‏ هُوَ

رِزْقُ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَأَكَلَ مِنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَكَلَ عَلِيٌّ وَفَاطِمَةُ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ أَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ تَنْشُدُ الدِّينَارَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ يَا عَلِيُّ أَدِّ الدِّينَارَ ‏"

Narrated Abu Sa'id al-Khudri:

Ali ibn AbuTalib found a dinar and he took it to Fatimah. She asked the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) about it. He said: This is Allah's provision. Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ate out of the food (bought with it), and Ali and Fatimah also ate out of that food. But afterwards a woman came crying out about the dinar. The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Pay the dinar, Ali.

Al-Azimabadi — Awn al-Ma'bud

( هُوَ رِزْق اللَّه ) : الظَّاهِر أَنَّهُ كَانَ بَعْد التَّعْرِيف فَيُؤْخَذ مِنْهُ أَنَّ تَعْرِيف كُلّ شَيْء عَلَى حَسَبه قَالَهُ السِّنْدِيُّ , أَوْ هُوَ لِصَاحِبِ الْحَاجَة مِنْ غَيْر التَّعْرِيف لَكِنْ بِشَرْطِ أَنْ يَرُدّ إِذَا جَاءَ مَالِكه. قَالَهُ الشَّيْخ الْمُحَدِّث مَوْلَانَا مُحَمَّد إِسْحَاق رَحِمه اللَّه. وَفِي اللُّمَعَاتِ شَرْح الْمِشْكَاة لِلشَّيْخِ عَبْد الْحَقّ الدَّهْلَوِيّ : الظَّاهِر أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُعْرَف وَهُوَ مَذْهَب الْبَعْض أَنَّهُ لَا يَجِب التَّعْرِيف فِي الْقَلِيل لِأَنَّ الدِّينَار قَلِيل , وَاخْتَلَفُوا فِي حَدّ الْقَلِيل فَقِيلَ هُوَ مَا دُون عَشَرَة دَرَاهِم , وَقِيلَ الدِّينَار وَمَا دُونه قَلِيل اِنْتَهَى. وَتَقَدَّمَ الْكَلَام فِي ذَلِكَ مُفَصَّلًا مِنْ كَل…
