Hadith 33:238

Abu Khalid al-Ahmar narrated to us, from Yahya ibn Sa'id, from Mus'ab ibn Muhammad, from a man from Ghifar, from his father, who said: I arrived with food that I was carrying from al-Jar on camels from the camels of the Sadaqah (charity). Umar examined them, and a young camel among them pleased him. I said, "Take it, O Commander of the Faithful." He struck my shoulder with his hand and said, "By Allah, I am not more entitled to it than a man from the tribe of Ghifar."

حدثنا أبو خالد الأحمر عن يحيى بن سعيد عن مصعب بن محمد عن رجل من غفار عن أبيه قال أقبلت بطعام أحمله من الجار على إبل من إبل الصدقة فتصفحها عمر فأعجبه بكر فيها قلت خذه يا أمير المؤمنين فضرب بيده على كتفي وقال والله ما أنا بأحق به من رجل من بني غفار
