Hadith 2228
I twisted the garlands of the Hadis (i.e. animals for sacrifice) of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) with my own hands.
Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) put them around their necks with his own hands, and sent them with my father
(to Mecca). Nothing legal was regarded illegal for Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) till the animals were slaughtered.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 40, Hadith 16

Abu Talha was the richest man in Medina amongst the Ansar and Beeruha' (garden) was the most
beloved of his property, and it was situated opposite the mosque (of the Prophet.). Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
used to enter it and drink from its sweet water. When the following Divine Verse were revealed: 'you
will not attain righteousness till you spend in charity of the things you love' (3.92), Abu Talha got up
in front of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Allah says in His Book, 'You will not attain
righteousness unless you spend (in charity) that which you love,' and verily, the most beloved to me of
my property is Beeruha (garden), so I give it in charity and hope for its reward from Allah. O Allah's
Apostle! Spend it wherever you like." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) appreciated that and said, "That is perishable
wealth, that is perishable wealth. I have heard what you have said; I suggest you to distribute it among
your relatives." Abu Talha said, "I will do so, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." So, Abu Talha distributed it among
his relatives and cousins. The sub-narrator (Malik) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "That is a profitable
wealth," instead of "perishable wealth". Sahih al-Bukhari Book 40, Hadith 17
