Chapter 266: About Undesirability of Withdrawing an Endowment and Buying a Thing One has given in Charity

Translation: 901. Narrated Ibn Abbas may Allah be pleased with them; The Prophet ﷺ said: “ One who takes back his gift (which he has already given) is like a dog that licks its vomit. " (Bukhari).

Translation: 902. Narrated Omar *; Once I gave a horse in Allah's Cause (in charity) but that person did not take care of it. I intended to buy it, as I thought he would sell it at a low price,

Translation: So, I asked the Prophet bout it and he said: " Neither buy, nor take back your alms that you have given, even if the seller were willing to sell it for one dirham, for he who takes back what he has given in charity is like the one who swallows his own vomit. " (Bukhari).

Translation: 903.Narrated Ibn Abbas may Allah be pleased with them; " The Prophet said: " The one who withdraws back a gift is like a dog that vomits and licks its vomit. " (Agreed upon)

Translation: A version by Bukhari has the words: " An evil example does not suit us. One who withdraws back a gift is like a dog that vomits and then licks its vomit. "
