3. Book of Zakāh
٣۔ كِتَابُ الزَّكَاةِ
[Machine] A man asked the Prophet ﷺ about which charity is best. He replied, "Charity given to one's relative who is in need."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنِ الصَّدَقَاتِ أَيُّهَا أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ «عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ الْكَاشِحِ»
"Giving charity to a poor person is charity, and (giving) to a relative is two things, charity and upholding the ties of kinship." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2582)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ عَلَى الْمِسْكِينِ صَدَقَةٌ وَإِنَّهَا عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ اثْنَتَانِ صَدَقَةٌ وَصِلَةٌ»
the Messenger of Allah said: “Charity given to the poor is charity, and that given to a relative is two things: charity and upholding the ties of kinship.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1844)
«الصَّدَقَةُ عَلَى الْمِسْكِينِ صَدَقَةٌ وَهِيَ عَلَى ذِي الرَّحِمِ اثْنَتَانِ صَدَقَةٌ وَصِلَةٌ»
