It is narrated from Hazrat Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when something was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he would ask about it: "Is this a gift or charity?" If people said it was a gift, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would extend his hand towards it, and if people said it was charity, he would say to his companions, "You take it."
