Book of Gifts

(7) Chapter: Accepting a gift

Hadeeth 2579

Narrated Um 'Atiyya: Once the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم went to `Aisha and asked her whether she had something (to eat). She said that she had nothing except the mutton which Um 'Atiyya had sent to (Barirah) in charity. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said that it had reached its destination (i.e. it is no longer an object of charity.)
