Hadith 86
The Book of Good Manners
Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said to me, "When the revenues of Bahrain will arrive, I shall give you such and such and such." He passed away before the revenues were received. When they arrive during the caliphate of Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him), he ordered to be announced: "Anyone whom Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) promised or owed anything, should come to him." I went to him and said: "Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had said to me such and such." He took a double handful out of the money and gave it to me. I counted it and found that it was five hundred dirham. Then Abu Bakr (May Allah be pleased with him) said to me: "Take twice as much more of that amount." <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>.
وعن جابر رضي الله عنه قال: قال لي النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم:
لو قد جاء مال البحرين أعطيتك هكذا وهكذا وهكذا
