Hadith #45048
حَدَّثَنَا حَسَنٌ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدٍ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ هُبَيْرَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ زُرَيْرٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَسَنٌ يَوْمَ الْأَضْحَى فَقَرَّبَ إِلَيْنَا خَزِيرَةً فَقُلْتُ أَصْلَحَكَ اللَّهُ لَوْ قَرَّبْتَ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ هَذَا الْبَطِّ يَعْنِي الْوَزَّ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ أَكْثَرَ الْخَيْرَ فَقَالَ يَا ابْنَ زُرَيْرٍ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَا يَحِلُّ لِلْخَلِيفَةِ مِنْ مَالِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا قَصْعَتَانِ قَصْعَةٌ يَأْكُلُهَا هُوَ وَأَهْلُهُ وَقَصْعَةٌ يَضَعُهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ النَّاسِ.
Hassan narrated to us, and Abu Sa’id, the client of Banu Hashim, narrated to us. They said: Ibn Lahi’ah narrated to us, Abdullah bin Hubayra narrated to us, on the authority of Abdullah bin Zurayr, that he said, “I entered upon Ali bin Abi Talib, may God be pleased with him. He said, ‘It is a good day on the Day of Eid al-Adha.’ So Khuzayrah approached us and I said, ‘I will treat you well.’” By God, if you would bring to us this duck, meaning the goose, for God Almighty has increased goodness. He said, “O Ibn Zurayr, I have heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.” May God bless him and grant him peace. He says: It is not permissible for the Caliph to take from God’s wealth except two portions of portions for him and his family to eat. And a bowl that he puts in front of people.
