Sahih Bukhari

When the delegates of the tribe of Hawazin came to the Prophet (SAW) they requested him to return their property and their captives. He said to them, "This concerns also other people along with me as you see, and the best statement to me is the true one, so you may choose one of two alternatives; either the captives or the property and (I have not distributed the booty for) I have been waiting for you." When the Prophet (SAW) had returned from Taif, he waited for them for more than ten nights. When they came to know that the Prophet (SAW) would not return except one of the two, they chose their captives. The Prophet (SAW) then stood up amongst the Muslims, Glorified and Praised Allah as He deserved, and then said, "Then after: These brothers of yours have come to you with repentance and I see it proper to return their captives, so whoever amongst you likes to do that as a favour, then he can do it, and whoever of you wants to stick to his share till we pay him from the very first Fai (i.e. war booty) which Allah will give us, then he can do so." The people said, "We return (the captives) to them willingly as a favour, O Allah's Apostle (SAW)!" The Prophet (SAW) said, "I do not know who of you has given his consent and who has not; so go back and your leaders may present your decision to me." The people went away, and their leaders discussed the matter with them, and then came to the Prophet (SAW) to tell him that all of them had given their consent (to return the captives) willingly. (Az-Zuhri, the sub-narrator said, "This is what we know about the captives, of Hawazin.")

The Prophet (SAW) took a camel of special age from somebody on credit. Its owner came and demanded it back (harshly). The Prophet (SAW) said, "No doubt, he who has a right, can demand it." Then the Prophet (SAW) gave him an older camel than his camel and said, "The best amongst you is he who repays his debts in the most handsome way."

That he was in the company of the Prophet (SAW) on a journey, riding a troublesome camel belonging to 'Umar. The camel used to go ahead of the Prophet (SAW), so Ibn Umar's father would say, "O Abdullah! No one should go ahead of the Prophet (SAW)." The Prophet (SAW) said to him, "Sell it to me." Umar said to the Prophet (SAW) "It is for you." So, he bought it and said, "O Abdullah! It is for you, and you can do with it what you like."

Umar bin Al-Khattab saw a silken dress (cloak) being sold at the gate of the Mosque and said, "O Allah's Apostle (SAW)! Would that you buy it and wear it on Fridays and when the delegates come to you!" Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "This is worn by the one who will have no share in the Hereafter." Later on some silk dresses were brought and Allah's Apostle (SAW) sent one of them to Umar. Umar said, "How do you give me this to wear while you said what you said about the dress of Utarid?" Allah's Apostle (SAW) said, "I have not given it to you to wear." So, Umar gave it to a mushrik brother of his in Makkah.

Once the Prophet (SAW) went to the house of Fatima but did not enter it. Ali came and she told him about that. When Ali asked the Prophet (SAW) about it, he said, "I saw a (multi-coloured) decorated curtain on her door. I am not interested in worldly things." Ali went to Fatima and told her about it. Fatima said, "I am ready to dispense with it in the way he suggests." The Prophet (SAW) ordered her to send it to such and such needy people."

A Jubba (i.e. cloak) made of thick silken cloth was presented to the Prophet (SAW). The Prophet (SAW) used to forbid people to wear silk. So, the people were pleased to see it. The Prophet (SAW) said, "By Him in Whose Hands Muhammad's soul is, the handkerchiefs of Sad bin Muadh in Paradise are better than this." Anas added, "The present was sent to the Prophet (SAW) by Ukaidir (a Christian) from Dauma."

A Jewess brought a poisoned (cooked) sheep for the Prophet (SAW) who ate from it. She was brought to the Prophet (SAW) and he was asked, "Shall we kill her?" He said, "No." I continued to see the effect of the poison on the palate of the mouth of Allah's Apostle (SAW)."

We were one hundred and thirty persons accompanying the Prophet (SAW) who asked us whether anyone of us had food. There was a man who had about a Sa of wheat which was mixed with water then. A very tall mushrik came driving sheep. The Prophet (SAW) asked him, "Will you sell us (a sheep) or give it as a present?" He said, "I will sell you (a sheep)." The Prophet (SAW) bought a sheep and it was slaughtered. The Prophet (SAW) ordered that its liver and other abdominal organs be roasted. By Allah, the Prophet (SAW) gave every person of the one hundred and thirty a piece of that; he gave all those of them who were present; and kept the shares of those who were absent. The Prophet (SAW) then put its meat in two huge basins and all of them ate to their fill, and even then more food was left in the two basins which were carried on the camel (or said something like it).

Umar saw a silken cloak over a man for sale and requested the Prophet (SAW) to buy it in order to wear it on Fridays and while meeting delegates. The Prophet (SAW) said, "This is worn by the one who will have no share in the Hereafter." Later on Allah's Apostle (SAW) got some silken cloaks similar to that one, and he sent one to 'Umar. 'Umar said to the Prophet (SAW) "How can I wear it, while you said about it what you said?" The Prophet (SAW) said, "I have not given it to you to wear, but to sell or to give to someone else." So, 'Umar sent it to his brother at Makkah before he (his brother) embraced Islam.
