A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Messenger of Allah, so-and-so owns a date palm inside my garden. Order him to sell it to me or to give it to me as a gift."The Prophet ﷺ sent for the man, but he refused.The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to him, "Do it, and in return you will have a date palm in Paradise."He still refused.The Prophet ﷺ then said, "This is the stingiest of people."
جاء رجل إلى النبي ﷺ فقال: يا رسول الله، إن لفلان نخلة في حائطي فمره فليبعنيها أو ليهبها لي قال: فأبى الرجل، فقال رسول الله ﷺ: افعل، ولك بها نخلة في الجنة فأبى فقال النبي ﷺ: هذا أبخل الناس.
Ahmad (23085) narrated it from Waki, who said, Amash narrated to us, from Abu Salih Zakwan, from one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ, and he mentioned it. Haythami mentioned it in Majma (3/127) and said, "Its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih."
