[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "Begin with those whom you provide for, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand. Indeed, I consider the upper hand to be the giving hand and the lower hand to be the begging hand. And I am not asking anything from you, nor am I requesting any provision from you. Rather, it is Allah who provides sustenance for me and you."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ ابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَإِنِّي لَأَحْسِبُ الْيَدَ الْعُلْيَا الْمُعْطِيَةَ وَالسُّفْلَى السَّائِلَةَ وَإِنِّي غَيْرُ سَائِلِكَ شَيْئًا وَلَا رَادٍّ رِزْقًا سَاقَهُ اللهُ إِلَيَّ مِنْكَ
