The Prophet ﷺ said, "The poor person is not the one who asks a morsel or two (of meals) from the others, but the poor is the one who has nothing and is ashamed to beg from others."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ الأُكْلَةُ وَالأُكْلَتَانِ وَلَكِنِ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ غِنًى وَيَسْتَحْيِي أَوْ لاَ يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ تَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَلَكِنِ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي لاَ يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلاَ يُفْطَنُ بِهِ فَيُتَصَدَّقُ عَلَيْهِ وَلاَ يَقُومُ فَيَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "The poor person is not the one for whom a date or two or a morsel or two (of food is sufficient but the poor person is he who does not (beg or) ask the people (for something) or show his poverty at all. Recite if you wish, (Allah's Statement): "They do not beg of people at all." (2.273)

سَمِعْنَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ؓ يَقُولُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَلاَ اللُّقْمَةُ وَلاَ اللُّقْمَتَانِ إِنَّمَا الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي يَتَعَفَّفُ وَاقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ يَعْنِي قَوْلَهُ {لاَ يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا}

The poor man (miskin) is not the one who goes round to the people and is dismissed with one or two morsels. and one or two dates.

He said: He who does not get enough to satisfy him, and he is not considered so (as to elicit the attention of the benevolent people), so that charity way be given to him. and he does not beg anything from people.

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِهَذَا الطَّوَّافِ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَتَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ قَالُوا فَمَا الْمِسْكِينُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ الَّذِي لاَ يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلاَ يُفْطَنُ لَهُ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ وَلاَ يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا

"The poor man (Miskin) is not the one who goes around asking people and they send him away with a morsel or two, of a date or two. "They said: "Then what does poor (Mishkin) mean?" He said: "The one who does not possess independence of means and no one notices him to give charity to him, and he does not stand and ask of people."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِهَذَا الطَّوَّافِ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ تَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ قَالُوا فَمَا الْمِسْكِينُ قَالَ الَّذِي لاَ يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلاَ يُفْطَنُ لَهُ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ وَلاَ يَقُومُ فَيَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The poor person is not the one who goes around begging people for a date or two, or a morsel of food. Rather, the true poor person is the one who is self-restrained, who does not ask people for anything, and whose poverty is not noticed by others so that they may give charity to him."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِالطَّوَّافِ وَلَا بِالَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ وَلَا التَّمْرَتَانِ وَلَا اللُّقْمَةُ وَلَا اللُّقْمَتَانِ وَلَكِنِ الْمِسْكِينُ الْمُتَعَفِّفُ الَّذِي لَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا وَلَا يُفْطَنُ لَهُ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ

The poor man(miskin) is not one who is admitted (by the people) with one or two dates or with one or two morsels but is one, who does not beg anything from his people and is not taken notice of so that alms may be given to him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1631)

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ أَوِ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ إِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الْمُتَعَفِّفُ اقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ {لَا يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا} [البقرة 273]

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "The true needy person is not the one who goes around asking for a morsel or two, but rather the truly needy person is the one who has self-restraint."

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِالطَّوَّافِ عَلَيْكُمْ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الْمُتَعَفِّفُ

The poor man(miskin) is not one who is admitted (by the people) with one or two dates or with one or two morsels but is one, who does not beg anything from his people and is not taken notice of so that alms may be given to him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1631)

[AI] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ that he said: The poor person is not the one who is provided with a meal, or two meals, or a morsel, or two morsels, or a date, or two dates, while harboring doubt about it. Rather, the poor person is the one who has no means to provide for himself, and does not ask people persistently, nor does he feel ashamed to ask people persistently.

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ مَنْ تَرُدُّهُ الْأُكْلَةُ وَالْأُكْلَتَانِ وَاللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ أَوِ التَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ شُعْبَةُ شَكَّ فِي اللُّقْمَةِ وَالتَّمْرَةِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا أَوْ يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا

[AI] I heard Abu Qasim ﷺ say, "The truly needy person is not the one who is given a few dates, or two dates, or a mouthful of food, or two mouthfuls. Rather, the truly needy person is the one who cannot find enough to sustain themselves and does not ask people insistently."

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْقَاسِمِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِالطَّوَّافِ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَالْأُكْلَةُ وَالْأُكْلَتَانِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الَّذِي لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The very poor are not the people who constantly walk from person to person and are given one or two morsels, and one or two dates." They said, "Who are the very poor, Messenger of Allah?" He said, "People who do not find enough for themselves and other people are not aware of them to give sadaqa to them, and they do not start begging from other people."

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِهَذَا الطَّوَّافِ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَتَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ قَالُوا فَمَا الْمِسْكِينُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ الَّذِي لاَ يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ وَلاَ يَفْطُنُ النَّاسُ لَهُ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ وَلاَ يَقُومُ فَيَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ

[AI] From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he said: "The true needy person is not the one who is satisfied with a single meal, two meals, a morsel, two morsels, a date, or two dates. Rather, the truly needy person is the one who cannot find sufficiency, yet they are given sufficiency. They do not ask people insistently for help, and they feel ashamed to ask people insistently for help."

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِالطَّوَافِ مَنْ تَرُدُّهُ الْأَكْلَةُ وَالْأَكْلَتَانِ وَاللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الَّذِي لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى فَيُغْنِيهِ وَلَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا وَيَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا»

[AI] The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "The true poor person is not the one who is given a date or two dates, or a meal or two meals, but rather the true poor person is the one who does not have enough to meet his needs and his need is not known, so he is given charity. This is the one who is deprived."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَالْأَكْلَةُ وَالْأَكْلَتَانِ وَلَكِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ مَا يَسْتَغْنِي بِهِ وَلَا يُعْلَمُ بِحَاجَتِهِ فَيُتَصَدَّقُ عَلَيْهِ فَذَلِكَ الْمَحْرُومُ»

عَن النَّبِيّ ﷺ قال ليس المسكين الذي ترده التمرة والتمرتان ولاَ الأكلة ولاَ الأكلتان قالوا فما المسكين؟ قال الذي لا يجد غنى ولاَ يعلم بمكانه فيتصدق عليه قال الزُّهْرِيّ وذلك المحروم

قال إن المسكين ليس الذي ترده التمرة والتمرتان وَلكن المسكين الذي لا يسأل الناس ولاَ يفطن له فيعطى

"لَيسَ الْمِسكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّه التَّمْرَةُ والتَّمْرَتَانِ، وَالأُكلَةُ والأُكْلَتَانِ، ولَكِنَّ الْمِسْكينَ الَّذِي لَيسَ لَهُ مَا يَسْتَغْنِي بِه ولا يُعْلَمُ بِحَاجَتِه فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيهِ، فَذَلِكَ الْمَحْرُومُ".
