Sahih al-Bukhari 2599 (Book 51, Hadith 33) #2487
Generosity of the Prophet (ﷺ)

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) gave a cloak to Makhrama, who was pleased with it.

Narrated Al-Miswar bin Makhrama: Allah's Messenger distributed some cloaks but did not give anything thereof to Makhrama. Makhrama said (to me), "O son! accompany me to Allah's Messenger ". When I went with him, he said, "Call him to me". I called him (ie the Prophet ) for my father. He came out wearing one of those cloaks and said, "We kept this (cloak) for you, (Makhrama)". Makhrama looked at the cloak and said, "Makhrama is pleased," (or the Prophet said), "Is Makhrama pleased?"
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ قَسَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَقْبِيَةً، وَلَمْ يُعْطِ مَخْرَمَةَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا، فَقَالَ مَخْرَمَةُ يَا بُنَىَّ انْطَلِقْ بِنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ فَانْطَلَقْتُ مَعَهُ، فَقَالَ ادْخُلْ فَادْعُهُ لِي‏.‏ قَالَ فَدَعَوْتُهُ لَهُ فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِ، وَعَلَيْهِ قَبَاءٌ مِنْهَا، فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ خَبَأْنَا هَذَا لَكَ ‏"‏‏.‏ قَالَ فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ رَضِيَ مَخْرَمَةُ‏.‏
