حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسٌ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ كَيْسَانَ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ؓ أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ
أَنَّ أَبَاهُ تُوُفِّيَ وَتَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ ثَلاَثِينَ وَسْقًا لِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْيَهُودِ فَاسْتَنْظَرَهُ جَابِرٌ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُنْظِرَهُ فَكَلَّمَ جَابِرٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِيَشْفَعَ لَهُ إِلَيْهِ فَجَاءَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكَلَّمَ الْيَهُودِيَّ لِيَأْخُذَ ثَمَرَ نَخْلِهِ بِالَّذِي لَهُ فَأَبَى فَدَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ النَّخْلَ فَمَشَى فِيهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ لِجَابِرٍ جُدَّ لَهُ فَأَوْفِ لَهُ الَّذِي لَهُ فَجَدَّهُ بَعْدَ مَا رَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَوْفَاهُ ثَلاَثِينَ وَسْقًا وَفَضَلَتْ لَهُ سَبْعَةَ عَشَرَ وَسْقًا فَجَاءَ جَابِرٌ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لِيُخْبِرَهُ بِالَّذِي كَانَ فَوَجَدَهُ يُصَلِّي الْعَصْرَ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ أَخْبَرَهُ بِالْفَضْلِ فَقَالَ أَخْبِرْ ذَلِكَ ابْنَ الْخَطَّابِ فَذَهَبَ جَابِرٌ إِلَى عُمَرَ فَأَخْبَرَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ حِينَ مَشَى فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَيُبَارَكَنَّ فِيهَا

When my father died he owed a Jew thirty Awsuq (of dates). I requested him to give me respite for repaying but he refused. I requested Messenger of Allah ﷺ to intercede with the Jew. Messenger of Allah ﷺ went to the Jew and asked him to accept the fruits of my trees in place of the debt but the Jew refused. Allah's Apostle entered the garden of the date-palms, wandering among the trees and ordered me (saying), "Pluck (the fruits) and give him his due." So, I plucked the fruits for him after the departure of Allah's Apostle and gave his thirty Awsuq, and still had seventeen Awsuq extra for myself. Jabir said: I went to Messenger of Allah ﷺ to inform of what had happened, but found him praying the ʿAsr prayer. After the prayer I told him about the extra fruits which remained. Messenger of Allah ﷺ told me to inform (ʿUmar) Ibn Al-Khattab about it. When I went to ʿUmar and told him about it, ʿUmar said, "When Messenger of Allah ﷺ walked in your garden, I was sure that Allah would definitely bless it."
