Sunan an-Nasai 3675 (Book 31, Hadith 4) #18289
Equality in Gifts

SUMMARY: The Prophet advised a man to not give a present to one of his children if he had not given presents to all of them.

It was narrated from Bashir bin Sa'd that he brought An-Nu'man to the Prophet and said: "I want to give this son of mine a slave as a present, and if you think that I should go ahead with it, I will go ahead". The Messenger of Allah said: "Have you given a present to all your children?" He said: "No". He said: "Then take (your present) back".
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَنَّ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ النُّعْمَانِ، وَحُمَيْدَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَاهُ عَنْ بَشِيرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، أَنَّهُ جَاءَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ بِالنُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ فَقَالَ إِنِّي نَحَلْتُ ابْنِي هَذَا غُلاَمًا فَإِنْ رَأَيْتَ أَنْ تُنْفِذَهُ أَنْفَذْتُهُ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ أَكُلَّ بَنِيكَ نَحَلْتَهُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَارْدُدْهُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of equality among children when it comes to giving gifts. The Prophet advised Bashir bin Sa'd, who wanted to give a slave as a present to one of his sons, An-Nu'man, that he should only do so if he has given presents to all his children. This teaches us that we should be fair and equal when it comes to giving gifts or presents, especially among our own family members. We should not show favoritism or partiality towards any particular child by giving them more than the others. It also teaches us that we should be mindful of our actions and think carefully before making decisions which could lead us into sinning or doing something wrong in the eyes of Allah SWT. We must always strive for justice and fairness in all aspects of life, even when it comes down to small things like giving gifts or presents.
