Majma al-Zawaid 4717 — Charity that impoverishes the giver

عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ قَالَ : قُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّ فِي حِجْرِي يَتِيمًا ، وَقَدْ تَصَدَّقْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِمِائَةٍ مِنَ الْإِبِلِ ; فَرَأَيْنَا الْغَضَبَ فِي وَجْهِهِ وَقَالَ : " إِنَّمَا الصَّدَقَةُ خَمْسٌ ، وَإِلَّا فَعَشْرٌ ، وَإِلَّا فَخَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ " . حَتَّى بَلَغَ الْأَرْبَعِينَ .
رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، قُلْتُ : رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ أَطْوَلَ مِنْ هَذَا بِكَثِيرٍ ، وَأَنَّهَا كَانَتْ وَصِيَّةٌ ، وَلَمْ تُجِزْهَا الْوَرَثَةُ - وَيَأْتِي فِي الْوَصَايَا إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ - وَإِسْنَادُهُ حَسَنٌ .
Sayyiduna Hanzalah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! There is an orphan boy under my care, and I have given him one hundred camels in charity." The narrator says: We saw signs of anger on the face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He said: "In charity five camels are given, ten are given, fifteen are given," until he mentioned up to forty.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Ahmad recorded it as a much longer report, stating that it was a bequest and the heirs did not permit it. This report will come later in the chapter on bequests, if Allah wills, and its chain is hasan (good).
