The Chapters on Gifts
Sunan Ibn Mājah 2384
إِنَّ مَثَلَ الَّذِي يَعُودُ فِي عَطِيَّتِهِ كَمَثَلِ الْكَلْبِ أَكَلَ حَتَّى إِذَا شَبِعَ قَاءَ ثُمَّ عَادَ فِي قَيْئِهِ فَأَكَلَهُ
inna mathala adh-dhī yaʿūdu fī ʿaṭiyyatihi kamathali al-kalbi akala ḥattā idhā shabiʿa qāʾa thumma ʿāda fī qayʾihi fa-akalah
