اخبرنا جعفر بن عون، اخبرنا هشام بن عروة، عن ابيه، عن عائشة، ان هندا ام معاوية امراة ابي سفيان اتت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقالت: يا رسول الله، إن ابا سفيان رجل شحيح وإنه لا يعطيني ما يكفيني وبني إلا ما اخذت منه، وهو لا يعلم، فهل علي في ذلك جناح؟ فقال: "خذي ما يكفيك وولدك بالمعروف".
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that Hind (bint Utbah), the mother of Muawiyah and the wife of Sayyiduna Abu Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with them), came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah! Abu Sufyan is a miserly man. He does not give me enough expenses that would suffice me and my children, except that I take something from him without his knowledge. Will I be sinful for doing so?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You may take from his wealth in a reasonable manner, according to what is customary, that which is sufficient for you and your children."
