حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ ثنا أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ ثنا شَرِيكٌ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي لَيْلَى الْكِنْدِيِّ عَنْ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ غَفَلَةَ قَالَ
أَتَانَا مُصَدِّقُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ وَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَقَرَأْتُ فِي عَهْدِهِ «أَنْ لَا تَجْمَعْ بَيْنَ مُتَفَرِّقٍ وَلَا تُفَرِّقْ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ خَشْيَةَ الصَّدَقَةِ» فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ بِنَاقَةٍ عَظِيمَةٍ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَهَا ثُمَّ أَتَاهُ بِأُخْرَى دُونَهَا فَأَبَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَيُّ أَرْضٍ تُقِلُّنِي؟ وَأَيُّ سَمَاءٍ تُظِلُّنِي؟ إِذَا أَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَدْ أَخَذْتُ خِيَارَ مَالِ امْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ»

Suwaid bin Ghafalah said: ”The Zakah collector of the Prophet came to us, and I took him by the hand and read in his order: 'Do not gather separate herds and do not separate herd for fear of Sadaqah'. A man brought him a huge, fat she-camel, but he refused to accept it. So he brought him another of lower quality and he accepted it. He said: 'What land would shelter me, if I came to the Messenger of Allah having taken the nest of a Muslim man's camels?' ” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1801)
