His saying: "That they should give to those of kinship."

14275 - Abu Sa'id al-Ashaj narrated to us, [saying]: Usamah narrated to us, from Hisham ibn 'Urwah, [who] informed me [saying]: 'Urwah informed me, from 'Aisha, [who] said: Allah revealed: "That they should give to those of kinship"—meaning Mistah.

14276 - Abu Zur'ah narrated to us, [saying]: Ibn Bukayr narrated to us, [saying]: Ibn Lahi'ah narrated to me, [saying]: 'Ata' narrated to me, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr regarding the saying of Allah: "That they should give to those of kinship"—meaning Mistah ibn Uthatha, the relative of Abu Bakr and the son of his maternal aunt. It was narrated from Muqatil ibn Hayyan something similar to that.

His saying: "And the poor."

14277 - By the same chain, from Sa'id ibn Jubayr regarding the saying of Allah: "And the poor"—meaning, because Mistah was poor. "And the emigrants in the cause of Allah"—meaning, because Mistah was one of the emigrants in the cause of Allah, meaning in the obedience of Allah.

His saying: "And let them pardon."

He said: And he was wearing a qaba' or a qurtaq (tunic). He said to a man: "Strike, and raise your hand, and give every limb its due." Then he said to the man who brought him: "What are you to him?"
