said When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent Mu’adh to Yemen, he said to him You are going to a people who are people of the book. So call them to bear witness that there is no diety but Allah, and that I am the Messenger of Allah. If they obey you in this respect, tell them that Allah has prescribed five prayers on them every day and night. If they obey you in this regard tell them that Allah has prescribed sadaqah(zakat) on their property and returned it to their poor. If they obey you in this respect, do not take the best of their property. Beware of the curse of the oppressed, for there is no curtain between it and Allah. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1584)   

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا بَعَثَ مُعَاذًا إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قَالَ «إِنَّكَ تَأْتِي قَوْمًا أَهْلَ كِتَابٍ فَادْعُهُمْ إِلَى أَنْ يَشْهَدُوا أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ فَإِنْ أَطَاعُوا لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ خَمْسَ صَلَوَاتٍ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوا لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَأَخْبِرْهُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ فَرَضَ عَلَيْهِمْ صَدَقَةً فِي أَمْوَالِهِمْ تُؤْخَذُ مِنْ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ وَتُرَدُّ عَلَى فُقَرَائِهِمْ فَإِنْ هُمْ أَطَاعُوا لَكَ فِي ذَلِكَ فَإِيَّاكَ وَكَرَائِمَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ وَإِيَّاكَ وَدَعْوَةَ الْمَظْلُومِ فَإِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهَا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ حِجَابٌ»  

[Machine] From the Prophet ﷺ , he said: "The poor person is not the one who is handed a morsel or two, or a small piece of food, or two small pieces of food, or a date, or two dates. Rather, the poor person is the one who does not have sufficient means to make him independent and feels ashamed to ask people for help, or refrains from asking people for help."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ وَالْكِسْرَةُ وَالْكِسْرَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ وَلَكِنِ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي لَيْسَ لَهُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا أَوْ لَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا »  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever owns camels, cows, or sheep and does not fulfill their rights, on the Day of Judgment he will be made to sit on a plain of black goo, which will be trampled by the hooves of the animals, and they will butt him with their horns. On that day, there will be no clothing or shelters for protection." They asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what are their rights?" He said, "Using the male for breeding, lending the bucket, giving milk to others, allowing it to drink from water, carrying loads in the way of Allah."  

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ صَاحِبِ إِبِلٍ وَلَا بَقَرٍ وَلَا غَنَمٍ لَا يُؤَدِّي حَقَّهَا إِلَّا أُقْعِدَ لَهَا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِقَاعٍ قَرْقَرٍ تَطَؤُهُ ذَاتُ الظِّلْفِ بِظِلْفِهَا وَتَنْطَحُهُ ذَاتُ الْقَرْنِ بِقَرْنِهَا لَيْسَ فِيهَا يَوْمَئِذٍ جَمَّاءُ وَلَا مَكْسُورَةُ الْقَرْنِ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا حَقُّهَا؟ قَالَ «إِطْرَاقُ فَحْلِهَا وَإِعَارَةُ دَلْوِهَا وَمِنْحَتُهَا وَحَلَبُهَا عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَحَمْلٌ عَلَيْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ»  

[Machine] "A man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what are the rights of camels?' He replied, 'Milking them for water, lending her bucket, lending her male, giving her as a gift, and carrying goods on her in the way of Allah.'"  

رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا حَقُّ الْإِبِلِ؟ قَالَ «حَلَبُهَا عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَإِعَارَةُ دَلْوِهَا وَإِعَارَةُ فَحْلِهَا وَمَنْحُهَا وَحَمْلٌ عَلَيْهَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ»  

A part of tradition has also been transmitted by al-Lajlaj from the Prophet ﷺ through a different chain of narrators. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4436)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِبَعْضِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ prescribed giving charity. In regards to sheep, for every forty, there is one to donate, and if they exceed that amount, then two are donated for every one hundred and if they exceed that amount, then three are donated for every three hundred. If the number of sheep exceeds four hundred, then for every one hundred sheep, one is donated and it is not permissible to take a white one, one with a defect, or one that has a blemish as charity.  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَتَبَ الصَّدَقَةَ َوكَانَ فِي الْغَنَمِ فِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ سَائِمَةً شَاةٌ إِلَى الْعِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا شَاتَانِ إِلَى مِائَتَيْنِ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا ثَلَاثُ شِيَاهٍ إِلَى ثَلَاثِ مِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ شَاةً لَمْ يَجِبْ فِيهَا إِلَّا ثَلَاثُ شِيَاهٍ حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ أَرْبَعَ مِائَةٍ فَإِذَا بَلَغَتْ أَرْبَعَ مِائَةِ شَاةٍ فَفِي كُلِّ مِائَةٍ شَاةٌ وَلَا تُؤْخَذُ فِي الصَّدَقَةِ هَرِمَةٌ وَلَا ذَاتُ عَوَارٍ وَلَا ذَاتُ عَيْبٍ»  

[Machine] "In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

From Muhammad, the Prophet, to Shurahbil bin 'Abd Kulal, Harith bin 'Abd Kulal, and Nuaim bin 'Abd Kulal.

Regarding forty sheep, there should be one sheep for every twenty sheep until they reach one hundred and one. Then, for every hundred sheep added, there should be two. When it reaches two hundred and one, there should be three sheep. And for every additional hundred sheep, there should be one sheep."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَتَبَ إِلَى أَهْلِ الْيَمَنِ مَعَ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ «بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيمِ مِنْ مُحَمَّدٍ النَّبِيِّ إِلَى شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَالْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَنُعَيْمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ شَاةً شَاةٌ إِلَى أَنْ تَبْلُغَ عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ عَلَى عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ وَاحِدَةً فَفِيهَا شَاتَانِ إِلَى أَنْ تَبْلُغَ مِائَتَيْنِ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ وَاحِدَةً فَفِيهَا ثَلَاثَةٌ إِلَى أَنْ تَبْلُغَ ثَلَاثَ مِائَةٍ فَمَا زَادَ فَفِي كُلِّ مِائَةِ شَاةٍ شَاةٌ»  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ wrote a book for them and mentioned something similar to it."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَتَبَ لَهُمْ كِتَابًا فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ  

Suwa Mu'adh bin Jabal said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ send me to Yemen and commanded me; for every forty cows, to take a Musinnah and for every thirty, a Tabi or Tabi'ah.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1803)   

مُعَاذٌ «بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً مُسِنَّةً وَمِنْ كُلِّ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا أَوْ تَبِيعَةً »  

Suwa Mu'adh bin Jabal said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ send me to Yemen and commanded me; for every forty cows, to take a Musinnah and for every thirty, a Tabi or Tabi'ah.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1803)   

«بَعَثَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَى الْيَمَنِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آخُذَ مِنَ الْبَقَرِ مِنْ ثَلَاثِينَ تَبِيعًا حَوْلِيًّا وَمِنْ أَرْبَعِينَ بَقَرَةً مُسِنَّةً»  

[Machine] "From Abu Bakr ibn Ayyash in a similar way."  

عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ بِنَحْوِهِ  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ wrote the charity, but it was not given to his workers until the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed away. When he passed away, Abu Bakr took it and acted upon it. After Abu Bakr passed away, Umar took it and acted upon it. Indeed, Umar was killed, and it is said that it was tied to his sword or his will. And it was in the charity of camels, for every five sheep there should be one camel until twenty-five. When it reaches twenty-five, there should be a parturient camel until thirty-five. If it is not a parturient camel, then there can be a male camel. When it increases, there should be a female camel until forty-five. When it increases, there should be a share until sixty. When it increases, there should be a shap till seventy-five. When it increases, there should be two parturient camels until ninety. When it increases, there should be two shares until a hundred. When it increases, there should be one share for every fifty and one female camel for every forty.  

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَتَبَ الصَّدَقَةَ فَلَمْ تُخْرَجْ إِلَى عُمَّالِهِ حَتَّى قُبِضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ أَخَذَهَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَعَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِ فَلَمَّا قُبِضَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَخَذَهَا عُمَرُ فَعَمِلَ بِهَا مِنْ بَعْدِهِمَا وَلَقَدْ قُتِلَ عُمَرُ وَإِنَّهَا لَمَقْرُونَةٌ بِسَيْفِهِ أَوْ بِوَصِيَّتِهِ وَكَانَ فِي صَدَقَةِ الْإِبِلِ فِي كُلِّ خَمْسٍ شَاةٌ إِلَى خَمْسٍ وَعِشْرِينَ فَإِذَا بَلَغَتْ خَمْسًا وَعِشْرِينَ فَفِيهَا بِنْتُ مَخَاضٍ إِلَى خَمْسٍ وَثَلَاثِينَ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَكُنْ بِنْتُ مَخَاضٍ فَابْنُ لَبُونٍ ذَكَرٌ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا بِنْتُ لَبُونٍ إِلَى خَمْسٍ وَأَرْبَعِينَ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا حِقَّةٌ إِلَى سِتِّينَ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا جَذَعَةٌ إِلَى خَمْسٍ وَسَبْعِينَ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا بِنْتَا لَبُونٍ إِلَى تِسْعِينَ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا حِقَّتَانِ إِلَى عِشْرِينَ وَمِائَةٍ فَإِذَا زَادَتْ فَفِيهَا فِي كُلِّ خَمْسِينَ حِقَّةٌ وَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ بِنْتُ لَبُونٍ»  

This tradition has also been narrated on the authority of ‘A’ishah through a different chain. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 99)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نَحْوَهُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, wrote with Amr ibn Hazm to Shurahbil ibn Abd Kulal, Harith ibn Abd Kulal, and Nuaim ibn Abd Kulal, that in every five ounces of paper there are five dirhams. And whatever exceeds that, in every forty dirhams there is one dirham, and there is nothing less than five ounces.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَتَبَ مَعَ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ إِلَى شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَالْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَنُعَيْمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ إِنَّ فِي كُلِّ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ مِنَ الْوَرِقِ خَمْسَةَ دَرَاهِمَ فَمَا زَادَ فَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ دِرْهَمًا دِرْهَمٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ شَيْءٌ  

[Machine] Ali narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "I have exempted the charity of the horses and slaves. Bring the charity of the camels, which is one dirham from every forty dirhams. There is nothing to be paid for amounts less than ninety-nine dirhams until it reaches two hundred dirhams."  

عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «عَفَوْتُ عَنْ صَدَقَةِ الْخَيْلِ وَالرَّقِيقِ هَاتُوا صَدَقَةَ الرِّقَةِ مِنْ كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ دِرْهَمًا دِرْهَمٌ وَلَيْسَ فِي تِسْعِينَ وَمِائَةٍ شَيْءٌ حَتَّى تَبْلُغَ مِائَتَيْنِ»  

Suwaid bin Ghaflah reported The collector of the Prophet ﷺ came to us. I caught hold of his hand and read in the document that the goods were not to be combined nor were they to be separated for fear of zakat. There is no mention of milch animals in this tradition. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1580)   

أَتَانَا مُصَدِّقُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ فَقَرَأْتُ فِي عَهْدِهِ «أَنْ لَا يُجْمَعَ بَيْنَ مُتَفَرِّقٍ وَلَا يُفَرَّقَ بَيْنَ مُجْتَمِعٍ خَشْيَةَ الصَّدَقَةِ»  

[Machine] When the Prophet ﷺ sent Muadh to Yemen, he said, "Beware of the privileged ones and their wealth."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَمَّا بَعَثَ مُعَاذًا إِلَى الْيَمَنِ قَالَ «إِيَّاكَ وَكَرَائِمَ أَمْوَالِهِمْ»  

"The Muslim does not have to pay Sadaqah on his slave or his horse." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2472)   

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَيْسَ عَلَى فَرَسِ الْمُسْلِمِ وَلَا عَلَى غُلَامِهِ صَدَقَةٌ»  

No Sadaqa (zakat) is due on less than five wasqs of (dates or grains), on less than five camel-heads, and on less than five uqiyas (of silver). (Using translation from Muslim 979d)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسَةِ أَوْسُقٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلَا فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ ذُودٍ صَدَقَةٌ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد الْوَسْقُ سِتُّونَ صَاعًا وَالصَّاعُ مَنَوَانِ وَنِصْفٌ فِي قَوْلِ أَهْلِ الْحِجَازِ وَأَرْبَعَةُ أَمْنَاءٍ فِي قَوْلِ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ  

That the Apostle of Allaah ﷺ as saying No sadaqah(zakat) is payable on less than five camels, on less than five ounces of silver and on less than five camel loads(wasq). (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1558)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسَةِ أَوْسُقٍ صَدَقَةٌ مِنْ حَبٍّ وَلَا تَمْرٍ وَلَا فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ صَدَقَةٌ وَلَا فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ ذَوْدٍ صَدَقَةٌ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ wrote with Amr ibn Hazm to Shurahbil ibn Abd Kulal, Al-Harith ibn Abd Kulal, and Nuaim ibn Abd Kulal: "Indeed, in every five ounces of silver, there are five dirhams. And for every additional forty dirhams, there is an extra dirham. And there is nothing less than five ounces."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَتَبَ مَعَ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ إِلَى شُرَحْبِيلَ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَالْحَارِثِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ وَنُعَيْمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ كُلَالٍ «إِنَّ فِي كُلِّ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ مِنَ الْوَرِقِ خَمْسَةَ دَرَاهِمَ فَمَا زَادَ فَفِي كُلِّ أَرْبَعِينَ دِرْهَمًا دِرْهَمٌ وَلَيْسَ فِيمَا دُونَ خَمْسِ أَوَاقٍ شَيْءٌ»  

"Al-Abbas asked the Messenger of Allah about paying his charity (Zakat) in advance before its time is due (by being in possession for a whole year), he permitted him to do that." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 678)   

«أَنَّ الْعَبَّاسَ سَأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ تَعْجِيلِ صَدَقَتِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَحِلَّ فَرَخَّصَ له فِي ذَلِكَ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «آخُذُ بِهِ وَلَا أَرَى فِي تَعْجِيلِ الزَّكَاةِ بَأْسًا»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "Indeed, in your wealth there is a right besides the obligatory charity (zakat)."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «إِنَّ فِي أَمْوَالِكُمْ حَقًّا سِوَى الزَّكَاةِ»  

My grandfather, my father and I gave the pledge of allegiance to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ got me engaged and then got me married. One day I went to the Prophet ﷺ with a complaint. My father Yazid had taken some gold coins for charity and kept them with a man in the mosque (to give them to the poor) But I went and took them and brought them to him (my father). My father said, "By Allah! I did not intend to give them to you. " I took (the case) to Messenger of Allah ﷺ . On that Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Yazid, you will be rewarded for what you intended. O Ma'n, whatever you have taken is yours." (Using translation from Bukhārī 1422)  

قَالَ بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَنَا وَأَبِي وَجَدِّي وَخَطَبَ عَلَيَّ فَأَنْكَحَنِي وَخَاصَمْتُ إِلَيْهِ وكَانَ أَبِي يَزِيدُ أَخْرَجَ دَنَانِيرَ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِهَا فَوَضَعَهَا عِنْدَ رَجُلٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَجِئْتُ فَأَخَذْتُهَا فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِهَا فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ مَا إِيَّاكَ أَرَدْتُ بِهَا فَخَاصَمْتُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «لَكَ مَا نَوَيْتَ يَا يَزِيدُ وَلَكَ يَا مَعْنُ مَا أَخَذْتَ»  

the Messenger of Allah said: “Charity is not permissible for a rich person, or for one who is strong and healthy. ” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1839)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَحِلُّ الصَّدَقَةُ لِغَنِيٍّ وَلَا لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «يَعْنِي قَوِيٍّ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever asks about the wealth of others will come on the Day of Judgment with marks of blackness, bruises, or scratches on his face." It was asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is wealth?" He said, "Fifty dirhams or its equivalent in gold."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ سَأَلَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَفِي وَجْهِهِ خُمُوشٌ أَوْ كُدُوحٌ أَوْ خُدُوشٌ» قِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ وَمَا الْغِنَى؟ قَالَ «خَمْسُونَ دِرْهَمًا أَوْ قِيمَتُهَا مِنَ الذَّهَبِ»  

The above-mentioned tradition has also been transmitted by Abu Hurairah through a different chain of narrators to the same effect. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 865)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِنَحْوِهِ  

[Machine] Al-Hasan took a date from the alms and put it in his mouth, so the Prophet ﷺ said, "Spit it out! Don't you feel that we do not eat charity?"  

أَخَذَ الْحَسَنُ تَمْرَةً مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَجَعَلَهَا فِي فِيهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «كِخْ كِخْ أَلْقِهَا أَمَا شَعَرْتَ أَنَّا لَا نَأْكُلُ الصَّدَقَةَ؟»  

[Machine] I was with the Prophet ﷺ and Al-Hasan ibn Ali was with him. He took a date from the charity dates, so the Prophet ﷺ took it from him and said, "Don't you know that charity is not permissible for us?"  

كُنْتُ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَعِنْدَهُ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ فَأَخَذَ تَمْرَةً مِنْ تَمْرِ الصَّدَقَةِ فَانْتَزَعَهَا مِنْهُ وَقَالَ «أَمَا عَلِمْتَ أَنَّهُ لَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا الصَّدَقَةُ»  

[Machine] The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said, "Do not persistently ask me about something, for by Allah, no one asks me for anything and I dislike granting it to them, and then they are blessed in it."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تُلْحِفُوا بِي فِي الْمَسْأَلَةِ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا يَسْأَلُنِي أَحَدٌ شَيْئًا فَأُعْطِيَهُ وَأَنَا كَارِهٌ فَيُبَارَكَ لَهُ فِيهِ»  

[Machine] On the authority of Thawban, the servant of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , who said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever asks the people for something while he himself is wealthy, it will be a stain on his face."  

عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ مَسْأَلَةً وَهُوَ عَنْهَا غَنِيٌّ كَانَتْ شَيْنًا فِي وَجْهِهِ»  

Some of the Ansar begged from the Messenger of Allah (May peace be upon him) and he gave them something. They later begged from him again and he gave them something so that what he had was exhausted. He then said :What I have I shall never store away from you but Allah will strengthen the abstinence of him who abstains, will give a satisfaction to him who wants to be satisfied, and will strengthen the endurance of him who shows endurance. No one has been given a more ample gift than endurance. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1644)  

أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ سَأَلُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَعْطَاهُمْ ثُمَّ سَأَلُوا فَأَعْطَاهُمْ حَتَّى إِذَا نَفِدَ ما عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ «مَا يَكُونُ عِنْدِي مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنْ أَدَّخِرَهُ عَنْكُمْ وَمَنْ يَسْتَعْفِفْ يُعِفَّهُ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ يَسْتَغْنِ يُغْنِهِ اللَّهُ وَمَنْ يَتَصَبَّرْ يُصَبِّرْهُ اللَّهُ وَمَا أُعْطِيَ أَحَدٌ عَطَاءً هُوَ خَيْرٌ وَأَوْسَعُ مِنَ الصَّبْرِ»  

[Machine] I heard Umar ibn al-Khattab saying that the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, used to give me gifts. So, I would say to him, "Give it to someone who is poorer than me." Then the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said, "Take it, for what Allah has given you of this wealth, and you are not asking for it nor begging. So, take it, but do not follow your desires by it."  

سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ يَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُعْطِينِي الْعَطَاءَ فَأَقُولُ أَعْطِهِ مَنْ هُوَ أَفْقَرُ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «خُذْهُ وَمَا آتَاكَ اللَّهُ مِنْ هَذَا الْمَالِ وَأَنْتَ غَيْرُ مُشْرِفٍ وَلَا سَائِلٍ فَخُذْهُ وَمَا لَا فَلَا تُتْبِعْهُ نَفْسَكَ»  

[Machine] "He informed him about Umar or something similar."  

أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ عُمَرَ بِنَحْوِهِ  

[Machine] He used me as an example just like him.  

اسْتَعْمَلَنِي عُمَرُ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوًا مِنْهُ  

Hakim bin Hizam said, "(Once) I asked Messenger of Allah ﷺ (for something) and he gave it to me. Again I asked and he gave (it to me). Again I asked and he gave (it to me). And then he said, "O Hakim! This property is like a sweet fresh fruit; whoever takes it without greediness, he is blessed in it, and whoever takes it with greediness, he is not blessed in it, and he is like a person who eats but is never satisfied; and the upper (giving) hand is better than the lower (receiving) hand." Hakim added, "I said to Messenger of Allah ﷺ , 'By Him (Allah) Who sent you with the Truth, I shall never accept anything from anybody after you, till I leave this world.' " Then Abu Bakr (during his caliphate) called Hakim to give him his share from the war booty (like the other companions of the Prophet ﷺ ), he refused to accept anything. Then ʿUmar (during his caliphate) called him to give him his share but he refused. On that ʿUmar said, "O Muslims! I would like you to witness that I offered Hakim his share from this booty and he refused to take it." So Hakim never took anything from anybody after the Prophet ﷺ till he died. (Using translation from Bukhārī 1472)  

سَأَلْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَعْطَانِي ثُمَّ سَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ «يَا حَكِيمُ إِنَّ هَذَا الْمَالَ خَضِرٌ حُلْوٌ فَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِسَخَاوَةِ نَفْسٍ بُورِكَ لَهُ فِيهِ وَمَنْ أَخَذَهُ بِإِشْرَافِ نَفْسٍ لَمْ يُبَارَكْ لَهُ فِيهِ وَكَانَ كَالَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَلَا يَشْبَعُ»  

[Machine] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "The best charity is that which is given when one is still rich, and let one of you begin by supporting those who are dependent upon him."  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا تُصُدِّقَ بِهِ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَلْيَبْدَأْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِمَنْ يَعُولُ»  

[Machine] "I heard the Messenger of Allah, may peace be upon him, say: 'The upper hand is better than the lower hand.' He said, 'The upper hand is the giving hand, and the lower hand is the hand of the beggar.'"  

سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «الْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى» قَالَ «وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا يَدُ الْمُعْطِي وَالْيَدُ السُّفْلَى يَدُ السَّائِلِ»  

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»  

[Machine] She said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O women, give in charity even from your ornaments."  

أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «يَا مَعْشَرَ النِّسَاءِ تَصَدَّقْنَ وَلَوْ مِنْ حُلِيِّكُنَّ»  

[Machine] Abu Talhah was one of the most wealthy Ansar in Madinah. He owned a grove of date palms that he loved dearly. It was located near the Prophet's Mosque, and he used to enter it and drink its pure water. Anas narrated that when the verse "[You will never attain righteousness until you spend of that which you love]" (Surah Al-Imran, 92) was revealed, Abu Talhah said, "The dearest of my wealth to me is Bayruhaa (the grove), and I consider it sadaqah (charity) for Allah. I hope for His reward and treasure it with Allah. O Messenger of Allah, place it wherever you wish." The Prophet ﷺ said, "That is a profitable or a blessed wealth." I heard what you said about it, and I think that you should give it to your relatives. Abu Talhah said, "I will do as you advise, O Messenger of Allah," and he distributed it among his relatives from the tribe of Bani 'Amr.  

كَانَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَكْثَرَ أَنْصَارِيٍّ بِالْمَدِينَةِ مَالًا نَخْلًا وَكَانَتْ أَحَبَّ أَمْوَالِهِ إِلَيْهِ بَيْرُحَاءُ وَكَانَتْ مُسْتَقْبِلَةَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَكَانَ يَدْخُلُهَا وَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ مَائِهَا طَيِّبٌ فَقَالَ أَنَسٌ فَلَمَّا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {لَنْ تَنَالُوا الْبِرَّ حَتَّى تُنْفِقُوا مِمَّا تُحِبُّونَ} [آل عمران 92] قَالَ إِنَّ أَحَبَّ أَمْوَالِي إِلَيَّ بَيْرُحَاءُ وَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ لِلَّهِ أَرْجُو بِرَّهَا وَذُخْرَهَا عِنْدَ اللَّهِ فَضَعْهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ حَيْثُ شِئْتَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «بَخٍ ذَلِكَ مَالٌ رَابِحٌ أَوْ رَائِحٌ » وَقَدْ سَمِعْتُ مَا قُلْتَ فِيهِ وَإِنِّي أَرَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ فِي الْأَقْرَبِينَ فَقَالَ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ أَفْعَلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فَقَسَّمَهُ أَبُو طَلْحَةَ فِي قَرَابَةِ بَنِي عَمِّهِ

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not address us except that he commanded us to give charity and forbade us from engaging in double-dealing."  

«مَا خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِلَّا أَمَرَنَا فِيهَا بِالصَّدَقَةِ وَنَهَانَا عَنِ الْمُثْلَةِ»  

[Machine] On the authority of the Prophet ﷺ , he said, "Fear the fire, even if it is by giving away a part of a date, and if you can't find that, then by saying a good word."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «اتَّقُوا النَّارَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَإِنْ لَمْ تَجِدُوا فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ»  

[Machine] From him, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "O Messenger of Allah, surely my repentance is that I abandon the house of my people and reside with you, and I give a portion of my wealth as charity to Allah and His Messenger." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "One-third will be sufficient for you."  

عَنْهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ مِنْ تَوْبَتِي أَنْ أَهْجُرَ دَارَ قَوْمِي وَأُسَاكِنَكَ وَأَنْخَلِعَ مِنْ مَالِي صَدَقَةً لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يُجْزِي عَنْكَ الثُّلُثُ»  

[Machine] While we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , a man came to him with an egg-sized piece of gold, some of which he acquired from battles. Ahmad Ibn Hanbal stated that it is from minerals, and this is correct. The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, take this as charity from me. By Allah, I have no wealth other than this." The Prophet turned away from him. Then he came to him from his left side and said the same. He came to him from in front of him and said the same. Then he said, "Give it to me," angrily. The Prophet threw it at him, striking him with it. If it had hit him, it would have hurt or even injured him. Then he said, "One of you may intentionally give away his wealth when he does not own anything else, then sit amongst the people as if he is poor. Charity is only appropriate for those who possess excess wealth. Take what is rightfully yours, as we have no need for it." So the man took his wealth and left. Abu Muhammad stated that Malik used to say, "When a person gives away a third of his wealth to the poor, it is considered charity."  

بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذْ جَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ بِمِثْلِ الْبَيْضَةِ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ أَصَابَهَا فِي بَعْضِ الْمَغَازِي قَالَ أَحْمَدُ فِي بَعْضِ الْمَعَادِنِ وَهُوَ الصَّوَابُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ خُذْهَا مِنِّي صَدَقَةً فَوَاللَّهِ مَا لِي مَالٌ غَيْرَهَا فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ عَنْ رُكْنِهِ الْأَيْسَرِ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ جَاءَهُ مِنْ بَيْنِ يَدَيْهِ فَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَاتِهَا» مُغْضَبًا فَحَذَفَهُ بِهَا حَذْفَةً لَوْ أَصَابَهُ لَأَوْجَعَهُ أَوْ عَقَرَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ «يَعْمِدُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى مَالِهِ لَا يَمْلِكُ غَيْرَهُ فَيَتَصَدَّقُ بِهِ ثُمَّ يَقْعُدُ يَتَكَفَّفُ النَّاسَ إِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَةُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى خُذِ الَّذِي لَكَ لَا حَاجَةَ لَنَا بِهِ» فَأَخَذَ الرَّجُلُ مَالَهُ وَذَهَبَ قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد كَانَ مَالِكٌ يَقُولُ إِذَا جَعَلَ الرَّجُلُ مَالَهُ فِي الْمَسَاكِينِ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِثُلُثِ مَالِهِ  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us one day to give sadaqah. At that time I had some property. I said: Today I shall surpass AbuBakr if I surpass him any day. I, therefore, brought half my property. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: What did you leave for your family? I replied: The same amount. AbuBakr brought all that he had with him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him: What did you leave for your family? He replied: I left Allah and His Apostle for them. I said: I shall never compete you in anything. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 1678)   

أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ نَتَصَدَّقَ فَوَافَقَ ذَلِكَ مَالًا عِنْدِي فَقُلْتُ الْيَوْمَ أَسْبِقُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنْ سَبَقْتُهُ يَوْمًا قال فَجِئْتُ بِنِصْفِ مَالِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا أَبْقَيْتَ لِأَهْلِكَ؟» قُلْتُ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ فَأَتَى أَبُو بَكْرٍ بِكُلِّ مَا عِنْدَهُ فَقَالَ «يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ مَا أَبْقَيْتَ لِأَهْلِكَ؟» فَقَالَ أَبْقَيْتُ لَهُمُ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقُلْتُ لَا أُسَابِقُكَ إِلَى شَيْءٍ أَبَدًا  

"The Messenger of Allah made Sadaqatul-Fitr of Ramadan an obligation - a Sa of dried dates or a Sa of barley - required upon every free person and slave, male and female among the Muslims." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 676)   

«فَرَضَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ زَكَاةَ الْفِطْرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ عَلَى كُلِّ حُرٍّ وَعَبْدٍ ذَكَرٍ أَوْ أُنْثَى مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ» قِيلَ لِأَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ تَقُولُ بِهِ؟ قَالَ «مَالِكٌ كَانَ يَقُولُ بِهِ»  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded the payment of Zakat al-Fitr from every free or slave, young or old, one saa’ of wheat or one saa’ of dates." Ibn Umar said, "People later replaced it with a measure of barley."  

«أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِزَكَاةِ الْفِطْرِ عَنْ كُلِّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ حُرٍّ أَوْ عَبْدٍ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ» قَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ «فَعَدَلَهُ النَّاسُ بِمُدَّيْنِ مِنْ بُرٍّ»  

"We would give Zakat Al-Fitr - when the Messenger of Allah was among us - as a Sa of food, or a Sa of barely, or a Sa of dried dates, or a Sa of raisins, or a Sa of cheese. So we did not stop paying it (like that) until Mu'awiyah arrived in Al-Madinah and talked (about it). Among the things he addressed the people with, he said: 'I see that two Mudd of the wheat of Ash-Sham are equal to a Sa of dried dates.' So the people followed that." Abu Sa'eed said: "I will not stop giving it in the manner that I had been giving it." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 673)   

«كُنَّا نُخْرِجُ زَكَاةَ الْفِطْرِ إِذْ كَانَ فِينَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ كُلِّ صَغِيرٍ وَكَبِيرٍ حُرٍّ وَمَمْلُوكٍ صَاعًا مِنْ طَعَامٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ تَمْرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ أَقِطٍ أَوْ صَاعًا مِنْ زَبِيبٍ» فَلَمْ يَزَلْ ذَلِكَ كَذَلِكَ حَتَّى قَدِمَ عَلَيْنَا مُعَاوِيَةُ الْمَدِينَةَ حَاجًّا أَوْ مُعْتَمِرًا فَقَالَ «إِنِّي أَرَى مُدَّيْنِ مِنْ سَمْرَاءِ الشَّامِ يَعْدِلُ صَاعًا مِنَ التَّمْرِ» فَأَخَذَ النَّاسُ بِذَلِكَ قَالَ أَبُو سَعِيدٍ «أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا أَزَالُ أُخْرِجُهُ كَمَا كُنْتُ أُخْرِجُهُ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد «أَرَى صَاعًا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ»
