Hadith 33:921
'Affan ibn Muslim narrated to us, he said: Ja'far ibn Sulayman narrated to us, he said: One of our companions narrated to us, he said: Mawraq al-'Ijli used to trade and acquire wealth, and a Friday would not pass while he still had any of it left. He said: He would meet a brother from among his brothers and give him four hundred, five hundred, or three hundred [dirhams], and say: "Keep it for us with you until we need it." Then he would meet him after that and say: "It is yours to do with as you please." The other would say: "I have no need for it." He would then say: "By Allah, we will never take it back; it is yours to do with as you please."
حدثنا عفان بن مسلم قال حدثنا جعفر بن سليمان قال حدثنا بعض أصحابنا قال كان مورق العجلي يتجر فيصيب المال فلا تأتي عليه جمعة وعنده منه شيء قال كان يلقى الأخ من إخوانه فيعطيه أربعمائة خمسمائة ثلاثمائة فيقول ضعها لنا عندك حتى نحتاج إليها ثم يلقاه بعد ذلك فيقول شأنك بها ويقول الآخر لا حاجة لي فيها فيقول إنا والله ما نحن بآخذيها أبدا شأنك بها
