حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَيَّانَ التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ رضى الله عنهما قَالَ: سَأَلَتْ أُمِّي أَبِي بَعْضَ الْمَوْهِبَةِ لِي مِنْ مَالِهِ

ثُمَّ بَدَا لَهُ فَوَهَبَهَا لِي فَقَالَتْ: لَا أَرْضَى حَتَّى تُشْهِدَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ، فَأَتَى بِيَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ أُمَّهُ بِنْتَ رَوَاحَةَ سَأَلَتْنِي بَعْضَ الْمَوْهِبَةِ لِهَذَا، قَالَ: «أَلَكَ وَلَدٌ سِوَاهُ».

قَالَ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ فَأُرَاهُ قَالَ: «لَا تُشْهِدْنِي عَلَى جَوْرٍ». وَقَالَ أَبُو حَرِيزٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ «لَا أَشْهَدُ عَلَى جَوْرٍ»

My mother asked my father to present me a gift from his property; and he gave it to me after some hesitation. My mother said that she would not be satisfied unless the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was made a witness to it. I being a young boy, my father held me by the hand and took me to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).

He said to the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam), “His mother, bint Rawaha, requested me to give this boy a gift.” The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Do you have other sons besides him?”

He said, “Yes.” The Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “Do not make me a witness for injustice.” Narrated Ash-Shubi that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “I will not become a witness for injustice.”

নু‘মান ইবনু বাশীর (রাঃ) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, আমার মাতা আমার পিতাকে তার মালের কিছু আমাকে দান করতে বললেন। পরে তা’ দেয়া ভালো মনে করলে আমাকে তা দান করেন।

তিনি (আমার মাতা) তখন বললেন, নবী (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম)-কে সাক্ষী মানা ব্যতীত আমি রাজী নই। অতঃপর তিনি (আমার পিতা) আমার হাত ধরে আমাকে নবী (সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম)-এর নিকট নিয়ে গেলেন, আমি তখন বালক মাত্র।

তিনি বললেন, এর মা বিনতে রাওয়াহা একে কিছু দান করার জন্য আমার নিকট আবেদন জানিয়েছে। তিনি জিজ্ঞেস করলেন, সে ব্যতীত তোমার আর কোন ছেলে আছে? তিনি বললেন, হ্যাঁ, আছে।

নু‘মান (রাঃ) বলেন, আমার মনে পড়ে, তিনি বলেছিলেন, আমাকে অন্যায় কাজে সাক্ষী করবেন না। আর আবূ হারীয (রহ.) ইমাম শা‘বী (রহ.) সূত্রে বর্ণনা করেছেন, আমি অন্যায় কাজে সাক্ষী হতে পারি না। (২৫৮৬)

ہم سے عبدان نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم کو عبداللہ بن مبارک نے خبر دی، کہا ہم کو ابوحیان تیمی (یحییٰ بن سعید) نے، انہیں شعبی نے، اور ان سے نعمان بن بشیر رضی اللہ عنہما نے بیان کیا کہ میری ماں نے میرے باپ سے مجھے ایک چیز ہبہ دینے کے لیے کہا ( پہلے تو انہوں نے انکار کیا کیونکہ دوسری بیوی کے بھی اولاد تھی ) پھر راضی ہو گئے اور مجھے وہ چیز ہبہ کر دی۔

لیکن ماں نے کہا کہ جب تک آپ نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو اس معاملہ میں گواہ نہ بنائیں میں اس پر راضی نہ ہوں گی۔ چنانچہ والد میرا ہاتھ پکڑ کر نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوئے۔ میں ابھی نوعمر تھا۔ انہوں نے عرض کیا کہ اس لڑکے کی ماں عمرہ بنت رواحہ رضی اللہ عنہا مجھ سے ایک چیز اسے ہبہ کرنے کے لیے کہہ رہی ہیں۔

آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے دریافت فرمایا اس کے علاوہ اور بھی تمہارے لڑکے ہیں؟ انہوں نے کہا ہاں، ہیں۔ نعمان رضی اللہ عنہ! نے بیان کیا، میرا خیال ہے کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے اس پر فرمایا ”تو مجھ کو ظلم کی بات پر گواہ نہ بنا۔“ اور ابوحریز نے شعبی سے یہ نقل کیا کہ آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا ”میں ظلم کی بات پر گواہ نہیں بنتا۔“

Telah menceritakan kepada kami ['Abdan] telah mengabarkan kepada kami ['Abdullah] telah mengabarkan kepada kami [Abu Hayyan an-Taimiy] dari [Asy-Sya'biy] dari [An Nu'man bin Basyir radliallahu 'anhuma] berkata: "Ibuku bertanya bapakku perihal sebagian pemberiannya kepadaku dari hartanya kemudian dia ingin memberikannya semua kepadaku, maka ibuku berkata: "Aku tidak rela sampai kamu persaksikan kepada Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam.

Maka ayahku membawaku, saat itu aku masih kecil, menemui Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam lalu berkata: "Sesungguhnya ibunya, binti Ruwahah, bertanya kepadaku tentang sebagaian pemberianku kepada anak ini".

Beliau bertanya: "Apakah kamu memiliki anak selain dia ini". Bapakku menjawab: "Ya punya". Dia berkata: "Aku menduga Beliau bersabda: "Janganlah engkau ajak aku dalam persaksian yang curang". Dan berkata, [Abu Hariz] dari [Asy Sya'biy]: "Aku tidak mau bersaksi diatas kecurangan

Nu'man b. Beşır r.a.'den rivayet edilmiştir: Annem babamdan malının bir kısmını bana bağışlamasını istemişti. Bir süre sonra babam bunu uygun görerek malının bir kısmını bana bağışladı. Annem "Hz.

Nebi'i buna şahit tutmadıkça razı olmam" dedi. Bunun üzerine babam -ben küçükken- elimden tuttu ve birlikte Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'e gittik. Babam Rasulullah'a: "Bunun annesi Bintu Revaha benden malımın bir kısmını buna bağışlamamı istedi" dedi. Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem: "Başka çocuğun var mı?"

diye sordu. Babam "evet" dedi. Bunun üzerine Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem: "Beni zulme şahit tutma" buyurdu. Ebu Hureyz, Şa'bi kanalıyla "Ben zulme şahit olmam" şeklinde bir başka ibare ile nakletmiştir

What it means

An-Nu‘mān ibn Bashīr (may Allah be pleased with him and his father) reported that his mother, ‘Amrah bint Rawāhah (may Allah be pleased with her), asked his father for a portion of his wealth as a gift for her son. He hesitated and delayed it for a year, but then he decided to respond to her request and give the gift to his son, an-Nu‘mān.

She said: I will not be satisfied until you have the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) witness what you have given as a gift to my son. So, my father took my hand, and I was a young boy at that time, and he went to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, the mother of this, Bint Rawāhah, wishes for you to witness what I have given as a gift to her son.

He (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: O Bashīr, do you have children other than this one? He said: Yes. He then said: Have you given them all the same gift as this?

He said: No. He said: Then do not make me a witness, for I do not bear witness to injustice and oppression. And in the version of Muslim, he said to him reproachfully: Then have someone else witness it, not me.

What it teaches

  • Justice is obligatory between sons and daughters in gifts and offerings. However, for financial maintenance, it is determined based on individual needs, each according to his requirements.
  • Favoring some children over others is injustice and oppression, and it is not permissible to bear witness to it, either in taking the testimony or in delivering it.
  • An-Nawawi said: One should treat his children equally in giving gifts, granting each one the same as the others without favoritism, and should treat men and females equally. Some of our fellow scholars said: A male should receive twice the share of a female, but the correct and famous view is that they should be treated equally, as indicated by the apparent meaning of the Hadīth.
  • Rulings that are contrary to the Shariah are invalid and do not take effect.
  • The ruler or the mufti should request details on matters that require further inquiry, as indicated by the Prophet's statement: "Did you do this for all your children?"
  • An-Nawawi said: This indicates the permissibility of a parent retracting his gift to the child.
  • The command to do what leads to harmony among siblings and to avoid what causes enmity between them or leads to undutifulness to parents.
