Hadith text

Narrated `Amr bin Ash-Sharid:While I was standing with Sa`d bin Abi Waqqas, Al-Miswar bin Makhrama came and put his hand on my shoulder. Meanwhile Abu Rafi`, the freed slave of the Prophet (ﷺ) came and asked Sa`d to buy from him the (two) dwellings which were in his house. Sa`d said, "By Allah I will not buy them." Al- Miswar said, "By Allah, you shall buy them." Sa`d replied, "By Allah, I will not pay more than four thousand (Dirhams) by installments." Abu Rafi` said, "I have been offered five hundred Dinars (for it) and had I not heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, 'The neighbor has more right than anyone else because of his nearness, I would not give them to you for four-thousand (Dirhams) while I am offered five-hundred Dinars (one Dinar equals ten Dirhams) for them." So, he sold it to Sa`d

Amr bin Ash-Sharid bataate hain: Jabke main Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas ke saath khada tha, Al-Miswar bin Makhrama aaye aur unhone apna haath mere kandhe par rakha. Isi dauran Abu Rafi, Nabi ke azaad kiye gulaam, aaye aur Sa'd se guzarish ki ke woh unse (Abu Rafi se) do makaan khareed len jo unke (Sa'd ke) ghar mein the. Sa'd ne kaha: "Allah ki qasam main unhe nahi khareedunga." Al-Miswar ne kaha: "Allah ki qasam, tumhein zaroor khareedne chahiye." Sa'd ne jawab diya: "Allah ki qasam, main kisaaon mein chaar hazaar (Dirham) se zyada nahi dunga." Abu Rafi ne kaha: "Mujhe (inke liye) paanch sau Dinar ki pesh kash mil chuki hai, aur agar maine Nabi ko yeh farmate na suna hota: 'Padosi ko doosron se zyada haqq hai apni nazdeekiyat ki wajah se,' to main unhe tumhe chaar hazaar (Dirham) mein na deta jabke mujhe unke liye paanch sau Dinar (ek Dinar dus Dirham ke barabar) ki pesh kash mil chuki hai." To unhone woh Sa'd ko bech diya.
