Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the zakah collector comes, he should not leave except pleased with you."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat, and its narrators are thiqat (trustworthy). (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: A narration about the zakah collector being pleased has already passed in the chapter on buried treasure.
