The Prophet ﷺ said, "No doubt, it is better for a person to take a rope and proceed in the morning to the mountains and cut the wood and then sell it, and eat from this income and give alms from it than to ask others for something."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ حَبْلَهُ ثُمَّ يَغْدُوَ أَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ إِلَى الْجَبَلِ فَيَحْتَطِبَ فَيَبِيعَ فَيَأْكُلَ وَيَتَصَدَّقَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ صَالِحُ بْنُ كَيْسَانَ أَكْبَرُ مِنَ الزُّهْرِيِّ وَهُوَ قَدْ أَدْرَكَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ

The Prophet ﷺ said, "One would rather take a rope and cut wood and carry it than ask others).

قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَحْبُلَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ

his grandfather said: “The Messenger of Allah said: 'If one of you were to take his rope (or ropes) and go to the mountains, and bring a bundle of firewood on his back to sell, and thus become independent of means, that would be better for him than begging from people who may either give him something or not give him anything.'”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَحْبُلَهُ فَيَأْتِيَ الْجَبَلَ فَيَجِيءَ بِحُزْمَةِ حَطَبٍ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ فَيَبِيعَهَا فَيَسْتَغْنِيَ بِثَمَنِهَا خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ أَعْطَوْهُ أَوْ مَنَعُوهُ

“For one of you to give (land) to his brother is better for him than if he were to take a set amount in rent for it.”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لأَنْ يَمْنَحَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ الأَرْضَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ لَهَا خَرَاجًا مَعْلُومًا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “For one of you to take a rope and go to the mountains, then bring a bundle of firewood on his back and sell it, and make himself independent of means thereby, is better for him than to ask of people, whether they give him something or not.”

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لأنْيَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَحْبُلَهُ فَيَأْتِيَ الْجَبَلَ فَيَجِيءَ بِحُزْمَةٍ مِنْ حَطَبٍ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ فَيَبِيعَهَا فَيَسْتَغْنِيَ بِثَمَنِهَا خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ أَعْطَوْهُ أَوْ مَنَعُوهُ

[AI] The Prophet ﷺ said, "By Allah, it is better for one of you to take a rope and go to this mountain and gather firewood, then sell it and make himself independent of the people, rather than asking people to give him or refusing to give him."

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ وَاللهِ لَأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ حَبْلًا فَيَنْطَلِقَ إِلَى هَذَا الْجَبَلِ فَيَحْتَطِبَ مِنَ الْحَطَبِ فيَبِيعَهُ فيَسْتَغْنِيَ بِهِ عَنِ النَّاسِ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ أَعْطَوْهُ أَوْ حَرَمُوهُ

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "It is better for one of you to take a rope and go to the mountain to collect firewood, then sell it, and eat from the earnings or give in charity, rather than asking people for something."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ حَبْلًا فَيَأْتِيَ الْجَبَلَ فَيَحْتَطِبَ مِنْهُ فَيَبِيعَهُ فَيَأْكُلَ وَيَتَصَدَّقَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا

[AI] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "For one of you to give his brother his land as a gift is better for him than taking a specified reward."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لِأَنْ يَمْنَحَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ أَرْضَهُ خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَجْرًا مَعْلُومًا»

"لا يَفْتَحُ أحَدٌ عَلَى نَفْسِه بَابَ مَسْألَةٍ إِلا فَتَح اللهُ عَلَيهِ بَابَ فَقْرٍ، لأنْ يَأخُذَ أحَدُكُمْ أحْبُلَهُ فَيَأتِي الجَبَلَ فيحْتَطبَ عَلَى ظَهْرِه فَيَبيعَهُ فَيأكُلَ (*) خَيرٌ لهُ مِنْ أنْ يَسْألَ النَّاسَ مُعْطىً أوْ مَمْنُوعًا".
