حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ يَقُولُ حَمَلْتُ عَلَى فَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ فَابْتَاعَهُ ـ أَوْ فَأَضَاعَهُ ـ الَّذِي كَانَ عِنْدَهُ، فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَشْتَرِيَهُ، وَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ بَائِعُهُ بِرُخْصٍ، فَسَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ تَشْتَرِهِ وَإِنْ بِدِرْهَمٍ، فَإِنَّ الْعَائِدَ فِي هِبَتِهِ كَالْكَلْبِ يَعُودُ فِي قَيْئِهِ ‏"‏.

English translation
Narrated Aslam: I heard `Umar bin Al-Khattab saying, "I gave a horse to be ridden in Allah's Cause and the person who got it intended to sell it or neglected it. So, I wanted to buy it as I thought he would sell it cheap. I consulted the Prophet (ﷺ) who said, "Do not buy it even if for one Dirham, because he who takes back his gift is like a dog swallowing its vomit
বাংলা অনুবাদ
‘উমার ইবনু খাত্তাব (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমি আল্লাহর রাহে একটি ঘোড়া দান করি। সে ওটা বিক্রি করতে চেয়েছিল কিংবা যার নিকট সেটা ছিল সে তাকে বিনষ্ট করার উপক্রম করেছিল। আমি ঘোড়াটি কেনার ইচ্ছা করলাম। আর আমি ধারণা করেছিলাম যে, সে তাকে সস্তায় বিক্রি করে দিবে। আমি এ বিষয়ে নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম-এর নিকট জিজ্ঞেস করলাম, তিনি বললেন, তুমি ওটা ক্রয় কর না, যদিও তা একটি মাত্র দিরহামের বিনিময়ে হয়। কেননা সদাকাহ করার পর ফেরত গ্রহণকারী এমন কুকুরের মত, যে বমি করে আবার তা ভক্ষণ করে। (১৪৯০) (আধুনিক প্রকাশনীঃ ২৭৮২, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশনঃ)
