Some men had superfluous land and they said that they would give it to others to cultivate on the
condition that they would get one-third or one-fourth or one half of its yield. The Prophet said,
“Whoever has land should cultivate it himself or give it to his brother or keep it uncultivated.”
Narrated Abu Said: A bedouin came to the Prophet and asked him about emigration. The Prophet
said to him, “May Allah be merciful to you. The matter of emigration is difficult. Have you got some
camels?” He replied in the affirmative. The Prophet asked him, “Do you pay their Zakat?” He replied
in the affirmative. He asked, “Do you lend them so that their milk may be utilized by others?” The
bedouin said, “Yes.” The Prophet asked, “Do you milk them on the day off watering them?” He replied,
“Yes.” The Prophet said, “Do good deeds beyond the merchants (or the sea) and Allah will never dis –
regard any of your deeds.” (See Hadith No. 260, Vol. 5)

That he was told by the most learned one amongst them (i.e. Ibn Abbas) that the Prophet went to –
wards some land which was flourishing with vegetation and asked to whom it belonged. He was told

owner) if he had given it to him gratis rather than charging him a fixed rent.

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 ‘Abdullah bin Abu Talha, gave some date-palms to Allah’ Apostle
who gave them to his freed slave-girl (Um Aiman) who was also the mother of Usama bin Zaid.
When the Prophet 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 also
returned to Anas’s mother the date-pallms. Allah’s Apostle gave Um Aiman other trees from his
garden in lieu of the old gift.

row from me.”
