So I found this verse: Vol. 2, Book 24, Hadith 570

`Aisha intended to buy Barira (a slave-girl) in order to manumit her and her masters intended to put the condition that her Al-wala would be for them. `Aisha mentioned that to the Prophet who said to her, "Buy her, as the "Wala" is for the manumitted." Once some meat was presented to the Prophet and `Aisha said to him, "This (meat) was given in charity to Barira." He said, "It is an object of charity for Barira but a gift for us"

I'm trying to understand how this is not theft. I don't wish to offend you, I just want to understand the reasoning for how this is okay. If the meat was Barira's, how is it not theft that The Prophet should take it?
