Book 57: One-fifth of Booty to the Cause of Allah (Khumus) · Hadith 51

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَعُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّ حَكِيمَ بْنَ حِزَامٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَعْطَانِي، ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَعْطَانِي، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي ‏ "‏ يَا حَكِيمُ، إِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ خَضِرٌ حُلْوٌ، فَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِسَخَاوَةِ نَفْسٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ، وَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ، وَكَانَ كَالَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَلاَ يَشْبَعُ، وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ حَكِيمٌ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، وَالَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لاَ أَرْزَأُ أَحَدًا بَعْدَكَ شَيْئًا حَتَّى أُفَارِقَ الدُّنْيَا‏.‏ فَكَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ يَدْعُو حَكِيمًا لِيُعْطِيَهُ الْعَطَاءَ، فَيَأْبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا، ثُمَّ إِنَّ عُمَرَ دَعَاهُ لِيُعْطِيَهُ فَأَبَى أَنْ يَقْبَلَ فَقَالَ يَا مَعْشَرَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ، إِنِّي أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْهِ حَقَّهُ الَّذِي قَسَمَ اللَّهُ لَهُ مِنْ هَذَا الْفَىْءِ، فَيَأْبَى أَنْ يَأْخُذَهُ‏.‏ فَلَمْ يَرْزَأْ حَكِيمٌ أَحَدًا مِنَ النَّاسِ بَعْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَ‏.‏

Narrated `Urwa bin Az-Zubair:Hakim bin Hizam said, "I asked Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) for something, and he gave me. I asked him again, and he gave me, and said to me. 'O Hakim! This wealth is like green sweet (i.e. fruit), and if one takes it without greed, then one is blessed in it, and if one takes it with greediness, then one is not blessed in it, and will be like the one who eats without satisfaction. And an upper (i.e. giving) hand is better than a lower (i.e. taking) hand,' I said, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! By Him Who has sent you with the Truth. I will not ask anyone for anything after you till I leave this world." So, when Abu Bakr during his Caliphate, called Hakim to give him (some money), Hakim refused to accept anything from him. Once `Umar called him (during his Caliphate) in order to give him something, but Hakim refused to accept it, whereupon `Umar said, "O Muslims! I give him (i.e. Hakim) his right which Allah has assigned to him) from this Fai '(booty), but he refuses to take it." So Hakim never took anything from anybody after the Prophet (ﷺ) till he died

Urwa bin Az-Zubair bataate hain: Hakim bin Hizam ne kaha, "Maine Allah ke Rasool se kuch maanga, aur unhone mujhe diya. Maine phir maanga, aur unhone phir diya, aur mujhse kaha, 'Aye Hakim! Yeh daulat meethe hari phal jaisi hai, aur agar koi ise bina lalach ke leta hai, use isme barkat milti hai, aur agar koi ise lalach se leta hai, use isme barkat nahi milti, aur woh us shaks jaisa hoga jo khata hai magar kabhi santusht nahi hota. Aur ek oopar wala (yaani dena wala) haath ek neeche wale (yaani lene wale) haath se behtar hai.' Maine kaha, 'Ya Allah ke Rasool! Us Zaat ki qasam jisne aapko haqq ke saath bheja hai, main aapke baad kisi se kuch nahi maangunga jab tak main is duniya se chala na jaoon.'" Isliye jab Abu Bakr, apni khilafat ke dauran, Hakim ko bulwate (kuch dene ke liye), Hakim unse kuch lene se inkaar kar dete. Ek baar Umar ne (apni khilafat ke dauran) unhe bulwaya kuch dene ke liye, magar Hakim ne lene se inkaar kiya, isspar Umar ne kaha, "Aye Musalmano! Main use (yaani Hakim ko) uska haqq deta hoon jo Allah ne is Fai (maal-e-ghanimat) mein se unke liye muqarrar kiya hai, magar woh lene se inkaar karte hain." Isliye Hakim ne Nabi ke baad kisi se kuch nahi liya jab tak unka intiqal nahi ho gaya.
