أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ هَانِئٍ يَقُولُ
سَمِعْتُ عِرْبَاضَ بْنَ سَارِيَةَ يَقُولُ بِعْتُ مِنَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بَكْرًا فَأَتَيْتُهُ أَتَقَاضَاهُ فَقَالَ «أَجَلْ لَا أَقْضِينَّكَهَا إِلَّا لُجَيْنِيَّةً» فَقَضَانِي فَأَحْسَنَ قَضَائِي وَجَاءَهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ يَتَقَاضَاهُ سِنَّهُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَعْطُوهُ سِنًّا» فَأَعْطُوهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ جَمَلًا فَقَالَ هَذَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ سِنِّي فَقَالَ «خَيْرُكُمْ خَيْرُكُمْ قَضَاءً»

✧ I heard Irbad b. Sariyah say: I sold the Prophet ﷺ a young camel. I came to him demanding it. He said: «Yes, I will not repay you except with a silver-like one.» He repaid me and made my repayment excellent. A Bedouin came to him demanding his camel of a certain age. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: «Give him a camel of that age.» That day they gave him a male camel [jamal]. He said: This is better than my due. He said: «The best of you is the one who is best in repayment.»
