حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَاهُ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، نَحَلَهُ غُلاَمًا وَأَنَّهُ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يُشْهِدُهُ فَقَالَ " أَكُلَّ وَلَدِكَ نَحَلْتَ " . قَالَ لاَ . قَالَ " فَارْدُدْهُ " .

Hisham ibn Ammar narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from Humayd ibn Abd al-Rahman and Muhammad ibn al-Numan ibn Bashir, who both informed him from al-Numan ibn Bashir, that his father gave him a young male slave. He then came to the Prophet ﷺ to ask him to witness the gift. He asked, “Have you given a gift to every one of your children?” He said, “No.” He said, “Then take it back.”
