حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ هِنْدُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ أَبَا سُفْيَانَ رَجُلٌ شَحِيحٌ فَهَلْ عَلَىَّ جُنَاحٌ أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ مَالِهِ مَا يَكْفِينِي وَبَنِيَّ قَالَ " خُذِي بِالْمَعْرُوفِ ".
Translation
Muhammad ibn Yusuf narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from Hisham ibn ʿUrwah, from his father, from ʿAʾishah, may God be pleased with her, who said: Hind said, “Messenger of God, Abu Sufyan is a miserly man. Would I be at fault if I took from his wealth what is sufficient for me and my sons?” He said, “Take what is reasonable.”
