حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ النَّوْفَلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَزْهَرُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ، قَالَ: نَحَلَنِي أَبِي نُحْلًا، ثُمَّ أَتَى بِي إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيُشْهِدَهُ، فَقَالَ: «أَكُلَّ وَلَدِكَ أَعْطَيْتَهُ هَذَا؟» قَالَ: لَا، قَالَ: «أَلَيْسَ تُرِيدُ مِنْهُمُ الْبِرَّ مِثْلَ مَا تُرِيدُ مِنْ ذَا؟» قَالَ: بَلَى، قَالَ: «فَإِنِّي لَا أَشْهَدُ»، قَالَ ابْنُ عَوْنٍ: فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ مُحَمَّدًا، فَقَالَ: إِنَّمَا تَحَدَّثْنَا أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «قَارِبُوا بَيْنَ أَوْلَادِكُمْ.

My father conferred a gift upon me, and then brought me to Allah's Messenger ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) to make him a witness (to it). He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: Have you given such gift to every son of yours (as you have given to Nu'man)? He said: No. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: Don't you expect goodness from them as you expect from him? He said: Yes. of course. He (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) said: I am not going to bear witness to it (as it is injustice). Ibn Aun (one of the narrators) said: I narrated this hadith to Muhammad (the other narrator) who said: Verily we narrated that lie (the Holy Prophet ﷺ) had said: Observe equity amongst your children.
