Sunan Abi Dawud, 3636

Abu Ja’far Muhammad bin ‘Ali rapporte de Samurah ibn Jundub qu’il possédait une rangée de palmiers dans le jardin d’un homme des Ansar. Cet homme vivait là avec sa famille. Samurah venait voir ses palmiers, ce qui agaçait beaucoup l’homme. Il lui demanda de les lui vendre, mais Samurah refusa. Il lui proposa un échange, mais il refusa aussi. Il alla alors voir le Prophète ﷺ et lui en parla. Le Prophète ﷺ demanda à Samurah de les lui vendre, mais il refusa. Il lui proposa un échange, mais il refusa encore. Il lui dit alors : « Donne-les-lui et tu auras telle et telle chose », en essayant de le convaincre, mais il refusa. Le Prophète ﷺ lui dit alors : « Tu es une nuisance. » Puis il dit à l’Ansari : « Va et arrache ses palmiers. »

Abu Ja'far Muhammad bin 'Ali reported from Samurah ibn Jundub that he had a row of palm-trees in the garden of a man of the Ansar. The man had his family with him. Samurah used to visit his palm-trees, and the man was annoyed by that and felt it keenly. So he asked him (Samurah) to sell them to him, but he refused. He then asked him to take something else in exchange, but he refused. So he came to the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) and mentioned it to him. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) asked him to sell it to him, but he refused. He asked him to take something else in exchange, but he refused. He then said:Give it to him and you can have such and such, mentioning something with which he tried to please him, but he refused. He then said: You are a nuisance. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) then said to the Ansari: Go and uproot his palm-trees
