بَابُ إِنَّ كُلَّ مَعْرُوفٍ صَدَقَةٌChapter: Every Good Deed is Charity
Hadith 225
حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ بْنِ أَبِي مُوسَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ: قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ”عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ صَدَقَةٌ“، قَالُوا: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ؟ قَالَ: ”فَيَعْتَمِلُ بِيَدَيْهِ، فَيَنْفَعُ نَفْسَهُ، وَيَتَصَدَّقُ“، قَالُوا: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ، أَوْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ؟ قَالَ: ”فَيُعِينُ ذَا الْحَاجَةِ الْمَلْهُوفَ“، قَالُوا: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ؟ قَالَ: ”فَيَأْمُرُ بِالْخَيْرِ، أَوْ يَأْمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ“، قَالُوا: فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ؟ قَالَ: ”فَيُمْسِكُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ صَدَقَةٌ.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Charity is due from every Muslim (every day)." He asked: What if he does not find (anything to give)? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "He should work with his hands, benefit himself from it, and also give charity." He asked: What if he is not able to do that or cannot do so? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "He should help the one who is helpless and needy." He asked: What if he is unable to do even that? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "He should enjoin good." He submitted: What if he cannot do even that? The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "He should refrain from harming people; this too is charity for him."
