Sahih Muslim Book - 15, Hadith - 3320

وَحَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ جَمِيعًا عَنِ الْعَقَدِىِّ - قَالَ عَبْدٌ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ أَنَّ سَعْدًا رَكِبَ إِلَى قَصْرِهِ بِالْعَقِيقِ فَوَجَدَ عَبْدًا يَقْطَعُ شَجَرًا أَوْ يَخْبِطُهُ فَسَلَبَهُ فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ سَعْدٌ جَاءَهُ أَهْلُ الْعَبْدِ فَكَلَّمُوهُ أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَى غُلاَمِهِمْ أَوْ عَلَيْهِمْ مَا أَخَذَ مِنْ غُلاَمِهِمْ فَقَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ أَنْ أَرُدَّ شَيْئًا نَفَّلَنِيهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم-. وَأَبَى أَنْ يَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِمْ.

It was narrated by Amir bin Sad that Sad rode his fortress in Al-Aqiq, where he found a slave cutting down a tree or hitting it to make its leaves to fall, and he stripped him of his belongings. When Sad acme back, the owners of that slave came to him and asked him to return to their slave, or to them, what he had taken from him .He said: “Allah forbid that I should return something that The Messenger Of Allah(SAW) granted to me as booty” and he refused to return it to them.
