أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكٌ عَنْ إِسْحَقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ
كَانَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَكْثَرَ أَنْصَارِيٍّ بِالْمَدِينَةِ مَالًا نَخْلًا وَكَانَتْ أَحَبَّ أَمْوَالِهِ إِلَيْهِ بَيْرُحَاءُ وَكَانَتْ مُسْتَقْبِلَةَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَكَانَ يَدْخُلُهَا وَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائِهَا طَيِّبٌ فَقَالَ أَنَسٌ فَلَمَّا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {لَنْ تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ} [آل عمران 92] قَالَ إِنَّ أَحَبَّ أَمْوَالِي إِلَيَّ بَيْرُحَاءُ وَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ لِلَّهِ أَرْجُو بِرَّهَا وَذُخْرَهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَضَعْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «بَخٍ ذَلِكَ مَالٌ رَابِحٌ أَوْ رَائِحٌ » وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَا قُلْتَ فِيهِ وَإِنِّي أَرَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ فِي الْأَقْرَبِينَ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَفْعَلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَسَّمَهُ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فِي قَرَابَةِ بَنِي عَمِّهِ

✧ Abu Talha was the wealthiest of the Ansar in Madinah in terms of palm trees. The most beloved of his properties to him was Bayruha', which faced the mosque. He used to enter it and drink from its pleasant water. Anas said: When this verse was revealed: {You will not attain righteousness until you spend from that which you love} [Al-Imran 92], he said: 'The most beloved of my properties to me is Bayruha', and it is a charity for Allah, hoping for its righteousness and its treasure with Allah. Place it, O Messenger of Allah, wherever you wish.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Excellent! That is a profitable property - or a returning one. I have heard what you said about it, and I think you should make it for your relatives.' Abu Talha said: 'I will do so, O Messenger of Allah.' So Abu Talha divided it among his relatives and the sons of his paternal uncle.
