[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , sent Umar ibn Al-Khattab to collect charity. Ibn Jameel, Khalid ibn Al-Walid, and Al-Abbas refused to give charity. The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said, "Ibn Jameel will not face any consequences unless he is in need, and Allah will enrich him. As for Khalid, you have wronged him. He has dedicated his arms and effort in the path of Allah. As for Al-Abbas, he is my uncle, and the same applies to him." Then he asked, "Have you not heard that a man resembles his father or his paternal uncle?"
بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ فَمَنَعَ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ وَخَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ وَالْعَبَّاسُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا يَنْقِمُ ابْنُ جَمِيلٍ إِلَّا أَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَأَغْنَاهُ اللهُ وَأَمَّا خَالِدٌ فَإِنَّكُمْ تَظْلِمُونَ خَالِدًا؛ فَقَدِ احْتَبَسَ أَدْرَاعَهُ وَأَعْتَادَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَأَمَّا الْعَبَّاسُ عَمُّ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَهِيَ عَلَيَّ وَمِثْلُهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَا شَعَرْتَ أَنَّ عَمَّ الرَّجُلِ صِنْوُ الْأَبِ أَوْ صِنْوُ أَبِيهِ؟
