[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sent a man from the tribe of Makhzum to collect charity. The man said, "Won't you accompany me so that you may benefit?" The Prophet ﷺ replied, "I am from the family of Muhammad and charity is not permissible for us. However, it is allowed for the leader of a people to take from the wealth of their own people."

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ بَعَثَ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَصْحَبُنِي تُصِيبُ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ حَتَّى أَذْكُرَ ذَلِكَ لِرَسُولِاللهِ ﷺ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ إِنَّا آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ لَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا الصَّدَقَةُ وَإِنَّ مَوْلَى الْقَوْمِ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ
