Narrated by ‘Abdan, who said: ‘Abdullah informed us, who said: Yunus informed us, from az-Zuhri, and Bashr ibn Muhammad informed us, who said: ‘Abdullah informed us, who said: Yunus and Ma’mar reported to us from az-Zuhri, similar to it. He (Ibn Abbas) said: Ubaydullah ibn ‘Abdullah reported to me from Ibn ‘Abbas that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was the most generous of people, and he was the most generous during Ramadan when Jibril met him. And he used to meet him every night in Ramadan to revise the Qur’an with him. So, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) was more generous in doing good than the fast wind.’
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدَانُ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، وَمَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، نَحْوَهُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَجْوَدَ النَّاسِ، وَكَانَ أَجْوَدُ مَا يَكُونُ فِي رَمَضَانَ حِينَ يَلْقَاهُ جِبْرِيلُ، وَكَانَ يَلْقَاهُ فِي كُلِّ لَيْلَةٍ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ فَيُدَارِسُهُ الْقُرْآنَ، فَلَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَجْوَدُ بِالْخَيْرِ مِنَ الرِّيحِ الْمُرْسَلَةِ.
