"The poor man (Miskin) is not the one who leaves if you give him a morsel or two, or a date or two." They said: "Then who is the Miskin, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "The one who does not possess independence of means, and the people do not know of his need, so that they could give him charity." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2573)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ الْأُكْلَةُ وَالْأُكْلَتَانِ وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ» قَالُوا فَمَا الْمِسْكِينُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «الَّذِي لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى وَلَا يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ بِحَاجَتِهِ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ»
