[Machine] A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him, "O Messenger of Allah, which deeds are the best?" The Prophet replied, "Believing in Allah and striving in His cause." The man then asked, "Which form of charity is the best?" The Prophet said, "To give of what you have earned through your own efforts." The man asked, "And what if I cannot do that?" The Prophet replied, "Then assist a worker or do some work for a handicapped person." The man asked, "And if I am unable to do even that?" The Prophet said, "Then refrain from harming others, for that is a charitable act you can do for yourself."
جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ إِيمَانٌ بِاللهِ وَجِهَادٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَقَالَ أَيُّ الْعَتَاقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ أَنْفَسُهَا قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَجِدْ؟ قَالَ فَتُعِينُ الصَّانِعَ أَوْ تَصْنَعُ لِأَخْرَقَ قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ؟ قَالَ فَدَعِ النَّاسَ مِنْ شَرِّكَ فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ تَصَّدَّقُ بِهَا عَنْ نَفْسِكَ
