بَابُ النَّفْقَةِ عَلَى الْأَقَارِبِ وَمَنْ يُقَدَّمُ مِنْهُم؟ وَعَلَى مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُهُChapter: Maintenance for Relatives, Who Is Given Priority Among Them, and for Those Whom One's Right Hand Possesses
Hadith 7275
اُردوEn
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ إِنْ تُعْطِ الْفَضْلَ فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكَ وَإِنْ تُمْسِكْهُ فَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَكَ وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ وَلَا يَلُومُ اللَّهُ عَلَى الْكَفَافِ وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Allah Almighty says: O son of Adam! If you spend the surplus wealth in the way of Allah, it will be better for you, and if you withhold it, it will be bad for you. And begin spending with those whose maintenance is your responsibility. And if you already have enough, then Allah Almighty will not blame you for not spending. And the upper hand is better than the lower hand.
