Ahmad ibn Thabit al-Jahdari narrated to us: Yaqub ibn Ishaq al-Hadrami narrated to us: Sulayman ibn Hayyan narrated to us: I heard my father narrate, from Abu Hurayrah, from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: Among those who came before you was a man who bought a piece of land and found in it a jar of gold. He said, I bought the land from you, but I did not buy the gold from you. The other man said, I sold you the land with all that was in it. They took their dispute to a man, who asked, Do you have children? One of them said, I have a boy, and the other said, I have a girl. He said, Marry the boy to the girl, let them spend on themselves from it, and give charity.
