I gave a horse in Allah's Cause. The person to whom it was given, did not look after it. I intended to buy it from him, thinking that he would sell it cheap. When I asked the Prophet (SAW) he said, "Don't buy it, even if he gives it to you for one Dirham, as the person who takes back what he has given in charity, is like a dog that swallows back its vomit."

Allah's Apostle (SAW) and Ubai bin Kab Al-Ansari went to the garden where Ibn Saiyyad used to live. When Allah's Apostle (SAW) entered (the garden), he (i.e. Allah's Apostle (SAW)) started hiding himself behind the date palms as he wanted to hear secretly the talk of Ibn Saiyyad before the latter saw him. Ibn Saiyyad wrapped with a soft decorated sheet was lying on his bed murmuring. Ibn Saiyyad's mother saw the Prophet (SAW) hiding behind the stems of the date-palms. She addressed Ibn Saiyyad saying, "O Saf, this is Muhammad." Hearing that Ibn Saiyyad stopped murmuring (or got cautious), the Prophet (SAW) said, "If she had left him undisturbed, he would have revealed his reality." (See Hadith No. 290, Vol 4 for details)

Anas bin Malik said, "When the emigrants came Medina, they had nothing whereas the Ansar had land and property. The Ansar gave them their land on condition that the emigrants would give them half the yearly yield and work on the land and provide the necessaries for cultivation." His (i.e. Anas's mother who was also the mother of 'bdullah bin Abu Talha, gave some date-palms to Allah' Apostle (SAW) who gave them to his freed slave-girl (Um Aiman) who was also the mother of Usama bin Zaid. When the Prophet (SAW) finished from the fighting against the people of Khaibar and returned to Medina, the emigrants returned to the Ansar the fruit gifts which the Ansar had given them. The Prophet (SAW) also returned to Anas's mother the date-pallms. Allah's Apostle (SAW) gave Um Aiman other trees from his garden in lieu of the old gift.
