Explanation of the Hadith: Whoever is given a favor from his brother without asking

The questioner:
It is reported from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said: "Whoever is approached by . We hope, with thanks, that Your Eminence will explain this hadith?

The Shaykh:
This is a hadith narrated by Muslim in the Sahih from Ibn 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave 'Umar some money. 'Umar was in charge of a trust, so the Prophet gave him some of the sword, and 'Umar said, "O Messenger of Allah, give it to him, and I will return it to you from my own funds." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him, "Take it, and give it to him, and give charity from it," . So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered 'Umar to accept what came to him from the public treasury and of the same kind as this money, without asking for it or desiring it. If he wished, he could use it for his needs, or if he wished, he could give it as charity. So if money comes to you that is not from the path of riba (usury or interest) or from the path of gambling, and it is a gift from your brother, accept it; or if it is from the public treasury, accept it. If you wish, you may leave it for your needs, your food, your drink, your clothing, or the upkeep of your household. And if you wish, you may give it as charity to whom you wish, if you do not want it or if you are scrupulous about it, giving it as charity to the poor who need it. Do not return it except for valid reasons. If there are reasons for returning it, such as if the money was given to you to imitate falsehood, do not accept this money. If a judge gives you money to rule in favor of falsehood, it is not permissible for the judge to accept this money, nor is it permissible for you, because it would be a bribe. If money is given to you to commit a sin with these people, it is not permissible. However, if money is given to you out of love for Allah, or because you are poor, or for the sake of kinship, do not return it unless you know that it is corrupt, that it was stolen, or that it was taken by oppression from someone like Zulf or 'Umar. In that case, return it, because it is earnings in what Allah has forbidden and an encroachment on the rights of Allah's servants. Or take it from him and give it to its owner. If you know that it was stolen from so-and-so, or beaten from so-and-so, or usurped from so-and-so, take it and hand it over to its owner, so that you will be a doer of good and will have done well by doing so. The conclusion is that if money comes to you from a permissible path, do not diminish it and do not return it. If you wish, spend it on yourself; if you wish, give it as charity or use it in a project of good. But if it comes to you from an unlawful path, from the path of bribery, from the path of theft or oppression of people, do not accept it, and do not assist in the sins of Allah.

Another questioner:
I mean, you are calmer for the person who is calm and returns it to you.

The Shaykh:
If she gave it to you for the sake of Allah, without any condition that you would disobey Allah or obey him in his sins, there is no harm. But if she gave it to you so that you would engage in what is forbidden, engage in falsehood, or support a lie, no, do not accept it.

Another questioner:
No, my intention is to return it to you only after if there is.

The Shaykh:
If you have a counterpart.
