حَدَّثَنَا يُوسُفُ الْقَاضِي ثنا عَمْرُو بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدُوسٍ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ قَالَا أَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ قَالَ
خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ فَنَهَانَا عَنْ أَمْرٍ كَانَ لَنَا نَافِعًا وَأَمْرُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ خَيْرٌ قَالَ «مَنْ كَانَتْ لَهُ أَرْضٌ فَلْيَزْرَعْهَا أَوْ لِيَمْنَحْهَا أَوْ لِيَذَرْهَا» فَذُكِرَ ذَلِكَ لِطَاوُسٍ فَقَالَ إِنَّ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «لِأَنْ يَمْنَحَ الرَّجُلُ أَخَاهُ أَرْضَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُ»

✧ The Messenger of God came out to us and forbade us from a matter that was beneficial to us, but the command of the Messenger of God ﷺ is better. He said: “Whoever has land, let him cultivate it, grant it, or leave it.” This was mentioned to Ṭāwūs, and he said: Ibn ʿAbbās ؓ knew better. He said: Ibn ʿAbbās said: “For a man to grant his land to his brother is better for him.”
