Sunan Abi Dawud 3562 (Book 24, Hadith 147) #23852
Borrowing with a Guarantee of Return

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad borrowed coats of mail from Safwan ibn Umayyah and promised to return them.

Narrated Safwan ibn Umayyah: The Messenger of Allah borrowed coats of mail from him on the day of (the battle of) Hunayn. He asked: Are you taking them by force. Muhammad? He replied: No, it is a loan with a guarantee of their return. Abu Dawud said: This tradition narrated by Yazid (b. Harun) at Baghdad. There is some change in the tradition narrated by him at Wasit, which is something different.
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَسَلَمَةُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ رُفَيْعٍ، عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَعَارَ مِنْهُ أَدْرَاعًا يَوْمَ حُنَيْنٍ فَقَالَ أَغَصْبٌ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ لاَ بَلْ عَارِيَةٌ مَضْمُونَةٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَهَذِهِ رِوَايَةُ يَزِيدَ بِبَغْدَادَ وَفِي رِوَايَتِهِ بِوَاسِطَ تَغَيُّرٌ عَلَى غَيْرِ هَذَا
