Musnad of Abdullah ibn al-Abbas ibn Abd al-Muttalib (RA), from the Prophet (SAW)
مسند عبد الله بن العباس بن عبد المطلب (1) ، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم
Hadith 25:788
'Affan narrated to us, Wuhayb narrated to us, 'Abdullah ibn Tawus narrated to us, from his father, who said: We used to say while we were boys: "The one who takes back his gift is like a dog that vomits, then returns to its vomit." We did not know that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had used that as a parable until Ibn 'Abbas narrated to us that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "The one who takes back his gift is like a dog that vomits, then returns to its vomit."
حدثنا عفان، حدثنا وهيب، حدثنا عبد الله بن طاوس، عن أبيه، قال: كنا نقول ونحن صبيان: العائد في هبته كالكلب، يقيء، ثم يعود في قيئه، ولم نعلم أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ضرب في ذلك مثلا، حتى حدثنا ابن عباس، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال: " العائد في هبته كالكلب يقيء، ثم يعود في قيئه "
