"The best of charity is that which is given when you are self-sufficient, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and start with those for whom you are responsible."

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ

"The Messenger of Allah said: "The best kind of charity is that which is given when you are rich, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and start with those for whom you are responsible."'

قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَفْضَلُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ

"The best of charity is that which is given when you are self-sufficient, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and start with those for whom you are responsible." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2534)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "The upper hand is better than the lower hand (i.e. he who gives in charity is better than him who takes it). One should start giving first to his dependents. And the best object of charity is that which is given by a wealthy person (from the money which is left after his expenses). And whoever abstains from asking others for some financial help, Allah will give him and save him from asking others, Allah will make him self-sufficient." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1427)

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ»

قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَفْضَلُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ»

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم أَنَّه قال خير الصدقة ما كان عن ظهر غنى وابدأ بمن تعول

اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ قَرْضُ مَرَّتَيْنِ يَعْدِلُ صَدَقَةَ مَرَّةٍ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُهُ يُرْوَى عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ

اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لا صدقة إلا عن ظهر غنى واليد العليا خير من اليد السفلى وابدأ بمن تعول

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قال خير الصدقة ما كان عن ظهر غنى واليد العليا خير من اليد السفلى وابدأ بمن تعول

اللَّهُ عَلَيه وَسَلَّم قَالَ الْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ أَحَبَّوَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَا نَعْلَمُ رَوَاهُ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَن أَنَس إلاَّ بقية

"اليدُ العُليَا خَيرٌ مِنَ اليَدِ السُّفْلَى، وابْدَأ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ، وَخَيرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنىً، وَمن يَسْتَغْنِ يُغْنِه اللهُ".

"خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَة مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْر غنًى، وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ، وَالْيَدُ العُليَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ اليَدِ السُّفْلَى".

"خَيْرُ الصدقة ما كان عن ظهر غنًى، واليد العليا خَيْرٌ من اليد السُّفلى، وابدأ بمن تعول".

"عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رسولُ الله ﷺ : اليَدُ العُليَا خَيْرٌ مِن اليَدِ السُّفْلَى، وَابْدَأ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ، وَخَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنىً".
