حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَزِيدَ الْهُنَائِيِّ قَالَ:
سَأَلْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ عَنِ الرَّجُلِ يُهْدِي لَهُ غَرِيمُهُ ؟ فَقَالَ: " إِنْ كَانَ يُهْدِي لَهُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ فَلَا بَأْسَ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ يُهْدِي لَهُ قَبْلَ ذَلِكَ فَلَا يَصْلُحُ

I asked Anas ibn Malik about a man whose debtor gives him a gift? He said: "If he used to give him a gift before that, there is no harm, but if he did not use to give him a gift before that, then it is not permissible.
