Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجٌ حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادٌ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ قَتَلَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ رَجُلًا مِنْ الْمُشْرِكِينَ يَوْمَ الْخَنْدَقِ فَأَرْسَلُوا رَسُولًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَغْرَمُونَ الدِّيَةَ بِجِيفَتِهِ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّهُ لَخَبِيثٌ خَبِيثُ الدِّيَةِ خَبِيثُ الْجِيفَةِ فَخَلَّى بَيْنَهُمْ وَبَيْنَهُ.
English Translation
We used to say as children: 'The one who takes back his gift is like a dog that vomits and returns to its vomit,' and we did not know that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) had given this parable.
