“Some money came to the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, from Bahrain, so the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “Leave it in the mosque.” It was the largest amount of money that came to him. When he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, went to pray in the mosque he did not even glance at the money. Then he, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, finished the prayer and went by the money and started distributing it, and he did not see anyone except that he gave him some of it. Then Al-’Abbaas came and said: “O Messenger of Allah, give me some, because I ransomed myself and ‘Aqeel (they had both been taken prisoner in the Battle of Badr.)” The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, replied: “Take from it.” So Al-’Abbaas put some in his garment, and tried to lift it but it was too heavy for him. He said: “O Messenger of Allah, order someone to help me lift this.” The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, replied: “No.” He then said: “Then help me yourself.” The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, replied: “No.”Then he took out some of the money, and tried to lift it again but itwas too heavy for him. He said: “O Messenger of Allah, order someone tohelp me lift this.” The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam,replied: “No.” He then said: “Then help me yourself.” The Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, replied: “No.” Then he dropped some more money, until he was able to lift it on his shoulders, and then he left. So the Prophet of Allah, sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, did not leave the money until it was completely distributed.”
