Hadith 2326

Uqbah ibn Al-Harith (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: “I prayed behind the Prophet (ﷺ) in Madinah for Asr. After he finished the prayer, he hurriedly stepped over the people’s necks to one of his wives’ rooms. The people were alarmed by his haste. He came out and saw their concern, so he said: ‘I remembered some gold we had, and I disliked that it should keep me, so I ordered it to be distributed.’” [Narrated by Bukhari] In another narration by Bukhari: He said: “I had left some gold from charity in the house, and I disliked to keep it overnight.”
