The Khalifah sent with Hazrat Hasan Bin Al-Quhtabah a gift of 10,000 Dirhams. Discretion dictated that he should not decline the gift (for the Khalifah would construe it an insult). Imaam Abu Hanifah instructed his son to return the 10,000 Dirhams to Hasan after his (Imaam Abu Hanifah’s) burial. After Imaam Abu Hanifah’s demise, Hamaad, his son, returned the gift to Hasan who then commentd: “May Allah have mercy on your father. Indeed, he was most covetous on his Deen.”
