Hadith 256
The Book of the Prohibited actions
'Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said:
Hind, the wife of Abu Sufyan, said to the Prophet (ﷺ): Abu Sufyan is a niggardly man and does not give me and my children adequate provisions for maintenance unless I take something from his possession without his knowledge. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to her, "Take from his possessions on a reasonable basis that much which may suffice for you and your children." <b>[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]</b>.
وعن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت: قالت هند امرأة أبي سفيان للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم : إن أبا سفيان رجل شحيح وليس يعطيني ما يكفيني وولدي إلا ما أخذت منه، وهو لا يعلم؟ قال:
خذي ما يكفيك وولدك بالمعروف
