Hadith 3627

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو (بْنِ الْعَاصِ) رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((مَنْ أَخْرَجَ صَدَقَةً فَلَمْ يَجِدْ إِلَّا بَرْبَرِيًّا، فَلْيَرُدَّهَا))
Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever intends to give charity, but finds only an irreligious person to give it to, then he should take his charity back.
