[Machine] I came to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him about begging. He said, "Begging is forbidden except in three cases: a man who carries a burden, in which case begging is permitted until he repays it and is able to sustain himself; a man who is struck by a calamity that destroys his wealth, in which case begging is permitted until he finds a means of livelihood or a way to support himself, and then he should stop begging; and a man who is in extreme need or poverty, in which case he should seek help from three wise people from his community, and if they confirm his situation, then begging is permitted for him. Anything other than these cases is considered unlawful."  

البيهقي:١١٤٠٠وَأَمَّا حَدِيثُ الْحَمَالَةِ الَّتِي احْتَجَّ بِهَا الْمُزَنِيُّ فَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ أنبأ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْبُحْتُرِيِّ ثنا سَعْدَانُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ثنا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ رِئَابٍ عَنْ كِنَانَةَ بْنِ نُعَيْمٍ عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ الْمُخَارِقِ قَالَ

I was under debt and I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and begged from him regarding it. He said: Wait till we receive Sadaqa, so that we order that to be given to you. He again said: Qabisa, begging is not permissible but for one of the three (classes) of persons: one who has incurred debt, for him begging is permissible till he pays that off, after which he must stop it; a man whose property has been destroyed by a calamity which has smitten him, for him begging is permissible till he gets what will support life, or will provide him reasonable subsistence; and a person who has been smitten by poverty. the genuineness of which is confirmed by three intelligent members of this peoples for him begging is permissible till he gets what will support him, or will provide him subsistence. Qabisa, besides these three (every other reason) for begging is forbidden, and one who engages in such consumes that what is forbidden.

"I undertook a financial responsibility, then I came to the Prophet and asked him (for help) concerning that. He said: 'Hold on, o Qubaisah! When we get some charity we will give you some.' Then the Messenger of Allah said: 'O Qubaisah, charity is not permissible except for one of three: A man who undertakes a financial responsibility, so it is permissible for him to be given charity until he finds means to make him independent and to suffice him; a man who was stricken by calamity and his wealth was destroyed, so it is permissible for him to ask for help until he has enough to keep him going, them he should refrain from asking; and a man who is stricken with poverty and three wise men from among his own people testily that so-and-so is in desperate need, then it is permissible for him to ask for help until he finds means to make him independent and to suffice him. Asking for help in cases other than these, O Qubaisah, is unlawful, and the one who takes it is consuming it unlawfully."'

He also said, "Sometimes we will take it out when charity comes to us or when blessings of charity come." He said, "O Qabeesah, seeking is not permissible." He also said, "Except for three types: a man who carries a load, and his seeking is fulfilled until he has paid it off, and then he refrains; a man who experiences a need or poverty, and three people from his tribe testify for him; a man who experiences a need or poverty, and three people from his tribe testify for him or speak on his behalf." He said, "Except when a person is in need or poverty, and three people from his tribe testify for him or speak on his behalf, then his seeking is fulfilled. He continues to seek until he attains a sufficient livelihood or a complete livelihood, and then he refrains." He also said, "And nothing besides that is permissible regarding seeking."

[Machine] Kanana said to him, "You are the leader of your people and they come to you with questions, but you do not give them anything." He replied, "As for this, I will not give them anything, and I will inform you about it." I took on the responsibility in my community, so I went to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and informed him, and I asked him to help me. He said, "Rather, we will take the burden off you, O Qabisa, and we will fulfill it for them from the charity's camels." Then he said, "Indeed, begging is only permissible for three people: a man who takes on the responsibility and it is fulfilled until he can deliver it, or a man who is struck by a calamity that destroys his wealth, so it becomes permissible for him until he finds a provision or settles his debt, or a man who is afflicted with extreme poverty, and three witnesses from his people testify that begging is permissible for him, so it becomes permissible for him until he finds a provision or settles his debt. Other than that, begging is forbidden."

[Machine] Khinana, so I said to him, "You are the leader of your people, and they come to you asking, yet you give them nothing." He replied, "As for this, I will not give them anything, and I will inform you about it." I carried a burden in my tribe and I went to the Prophet ﷺ and informed him, asking for his assistance. He said, "Rather, we will carry it for you, O Qabeeshah, and we will give it to them from the charity's camels." Then he said, "Indeed, begging is only permissible for three types of people: a man who carries a burden, and it has become permissible for him until he fulfills it, or a man who is afflicted by a calamity that wipes out his wealth until he attains a sufficient means of livelihood or a man who is afflicted by poverty, and three witnesses from his people testify that begging has become permissible for him until he attains a sufficient means of livelihood. Any other type of begging is forbidden."

Anything obtained through begging is improper, and the one who consumes it is consuming something improper."

[Machine] I went to the Prophet to ask him about a burden. He said, "Asking for charity is prohibited except in three cases: a man who carries a burden and his request is granted until he pays it off, then he stops, a man who is struck by a calamity that destroys his wealth and his request is granted until he achieves a sufficient livelihood or sustenance, then he stops, and a man who is in need or poverty until three people from his community bear witness that his request is legitimate. Any other request for charity is considered invalid."

I became a guarantor for a payment, and I came to Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him). He said: Wait till I receive the sadaqah and I shall order it to be given to you. He then said : Begging, Qabisah, is allowable only to one of three classes: a man who has become a guarantor for a payment to whom begging is allowed till he gets it, after which he must stop (begging); a man who has been stricken by a calamity and it destroys his property to whom begging is allowed till he gets what will support life (or he said, what will provide a reasonable subsistence); and a man who has been smitten by poverty, about whom three intelligent members of his people confirm by saying: So and so has been smitten by poverty, to such a person begging is allowed till be gets what will support life (or he said, what will provide a reasonable subsistence), after which he must stop (begging). Any other reason for begging, Qabisah, is forbidden, and one who engages in such consumes it as a thing which is forbidden. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1640)
