38. Division of Charity
٣٨۔ كِتَابُ قَسْمِ الصَّدَقَاتِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O people, whoever among you has worked for us and concealed from us as much as a thread, it will be a burden that he carries on the Day of Resurrection." Then, a man with dark complexion stood up, looking like an Ansari. He said, "Pardon me for my work." The Prophet ﷺ asked, "What is that?" The man replied, "I heard you saying what you said, and now I say it too. Whoever has been employed by us should come to us with both his small and large earnings. Whatever is given to him, he should take, and whatever is prohibited, he should abstain from." Abu Tahir informed us, Hajib ibn Ahmad narrated to us, Abdur-Rahim ibn Munib narrated to us, Al-Fadl ibn Musa narrated to us, Ismail ibn Abi Khalid narrated to us, from Qays, from Adi ibn Amr al-Kindi, that he heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say the same. The only difference is that he said, "Then, a man from the Ansar stood up, being black, as if I can see him." He said, "Your work, O Messenger of Allah." He also said in the end, "Whatever I have been given, I have taken, and whatever I have been prohibited from, I have abstained from."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَنْ عَمِلَ مِنْكُمْ لَنَا عَلَى عَمَلٍ فَكَتَمَنَا مِخْيَطًا فَمَا فَوْقَهُ فَهُوَ غُلٌّ يَأْتِي بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ أَسْوَدُ كَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ تَحَمَّلْ عَنِّي عَمَلَكَ قَالَ وَمَا ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ الَّذِي قُلْتَ قَالَ وَأَنَا أَقُولُهُ الْآنَ مَنِ اسْتَعْمَلْنَاهُ عَلَى عَمَلٍ فَلْيَأْتِنَا بِقَلِيلِهِ وَكَثِيرِهِ فَمَا أُعْطِيَ مِنْهُ أَخَذَ وَمَا نُهِيَ عَنْهُ انْتَهَى 13173 وَأَخْبَرَنَاهُ أَبُو طَاهِرٍ أنبأ حَاجِبُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ أنبأ عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ مُنِيبٍ ثنا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُوسَى ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ عَنْ قَيْسٍ عَنْ عَدِيِّ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ الْكِنْدِيِّ ؓ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ فَذَكَرَهُ مِثْلَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فَقَامَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ أَسْوَدُ كَأَنِّي أُرَاهُ فَقَالَ دُونَكَ عَمَلُكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَقَالَ فِي آخِرِهِ فَمَا أُوتِيَ مِنْهُ أَخَذَ وَمَا نُهِيَ عَنْهُ انْتَهَى
Messenger of Allah ﷺ employed an employee (to collect Zakat). The employee returned after completing his job and said, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! This (amount of Zakat) is for you, and this (other amount) was given to me as a present." The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Why didn't you stay at your father's or mother's house and see if you would be given presents or not?" Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ got up in the evening after the prayer, and having testified that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and praised and glorified Allah as He deserved, he said, "Now then ! What about an employee whom we employ and then he comes and says, 'This amount (of Zakat) is for you, and this (amount) was given to me as a present'? Why didn't he stay at the house of his father and mother to see if he would be given presents or not? By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, none of you will steal anything of it (i.e. Zakat) but will bring it by carrying it over his neck on the Day of Resurrection. If it has been a camel, he will bring it (over his neck) while it will be grunting, and if it has been a cow, he will bring it (over his neck), while it will be mooing; and if it has been a sheep, he will bring it (over his neck) while it will be bleeding." The Prophet ﷺ added, "I have preached you (Allah's Message)." Abu Humaid said, "Then Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands so high that we saw the whiteness of his armpits." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6636)
أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ اسْتَعْمَلَ عَامِلًا عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَجَاءَ الْعَامِلُ حِينَ قَدِمَ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَذَا الَّذِي لَكُمْ وَهَذَا الَّذِي أُهْدِيَ لِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَهَلَّا قَعَدْتَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيكَ وَأُمِّكَ فَنَظَرْتَ إِنْ كَانَ يُهْدَى لَكَ أَمْ لَا؟ ثُمَّ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَشِيَّةً عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ بَعْدَ الصَّلَاةِ فَتَشَهَّدَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَى اللهِ بِمَا هُوَ أَهْلُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَمَا بَالُ الْعَامِلِ نَسْتَعْمِلُهُ فَيَأْتِيَنَا فَيَقُولُ هَذَا مِنْ عَمَلِكُمْ وَهَذَا الَّذِي أُهْدِيَ لِي فَهَلَّا قَعَدَ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهِ وَأُمِّهِ فَنَظَرَ هَلْ يُهْدَى لَهُ أَمْ لَا؟ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَا يَقْبَلُ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا إِلَّا جَاءَ بِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى عُنُقِهِ إِنْ كَانَ بَعِيرًا جَاءَ بِهِ وَلَهُ رُغَاءٌ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ بَقَرَةً جَاءَ بِهَا وَلَهَا خُوَارٌ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ شَاةً جَاءَ بِهَا تَيْعَرُ فَقَدْ بَلَّغْتُ قَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَدَهُ حَتَّى إِنَّا لَنَنْظُرُ إِلَى عُفْرَةِ إِبْطَيْهِ قَالَ أَبُو حُمَيْدٍ وَقَدْ سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ فَاسْأَلُوهُ
[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "The owner of a monopolistic business will not enter Paradise." Yazid ibn Harun, or he said Al-Ash'ari, asked, "What about if he gives charity and donates?"
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَا يَدْخُلُ صَاحِبُ مَكْسٍ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ يَعْنِي الْعَشَّارَ
