Sahih Muslim Book - 12, Hadith - 2316

حَدَّثَنِى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الآيَةُ (لَنْ تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ) قَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أُرَى رَبَّنَا يَسْأَلُنَا مِنْ أَمْوَالِنَا فَأُشْهِدُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنِّى قَدْ جَعَلْتُ أَرْضِى بَرِيحَا لِلَّهِ. قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- « اجْعَلْهَا فِى قَرَابَتِكَ ». قَالَ فَجَعَلَهَا فِى حَسَّانَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ وَأُبَىِّ بْنِ كَعْبٍ.

It was narrated that said: “When this verse was revealed – By no means shall you attain Al-Birr… – Abu Talhah said: ‘I see that our Lord is asking us for some of our wealth. Bear witness o Messenger of Allah, that I am giving my land Bairaha’ for the sake of Allah.’ The messenger of Allah (SAW) said: ‘Give it to your relatives.’ So he shared it between Hassan bin Thabit and Ubayy bin Ka’b.”
