Hadith 1613

Al-Bukhari and Muslim

وعن عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ حملت على فرس في سبيل الله فأضاعه الذي كان عنده، فأردت أن أشتريه، وظننت أنه يبيعه برخص، فسألت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فقال‏:‏ ‏"‏لا تشتره ولا تعد في صدقتك وإن أعطاكه بدرهم، فإن العائد في صدقته كالعائد في قيئه‏"‏ ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ قوله‏:‏ ‏"‏حملت على فرس في سبيل الله‏"‏ معناه‏:‏ تصدقت به على بعض المجاهدين‏.‏

I donated a horse in the way of Allah. Its new possessor did not treat it properly. I made my mind to buy it because I thought that he would sell it at a cheap price (now that it became weak and emaciated). I asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about it, whereupon he said, "Do not buy it and do not get back your charity, for one who gets back the charity is like a dog that eats its own vomit." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
