[Machine] Al-Harith, a man from the Quraysh tribe in Sham, informed Abu Dhar that he was in need. So he sent him 300 dinars. Abu Dhar said, "I did not find anyone more deserving of this money than him. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, 'Whoever asks for help and has 40 (units of currency), then he has persisted.' The family of Abu Dhar had 40 dirhams, 40 sheep, and two female camels." Abu Bakr ibn Ayyash said, meaning two servants.
