Sayyiduna Qabeesah bin Mukhaariq Hilaali رضي الله عنه says: I took on a guarantee on behalf of my people, so I came to the Messenger of Allah صلى الله عليه وسلم and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have taken on a guarantee on behalf of my people, please help me in this matter. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “O Qabeesah! Rather, we ourselves will take on this guarantee for you, and you will receive it when charity wealth comes from somewhere.” Then the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم said: “O Qabeesah! Asking (for help) is only permissible for three types of people. The first is the person who has taken on a guarantee for his people and his intention is also for reconciliation, so he may ask (for help), and when he achieves his objective or comes close to it, he should stop. The second is the person upon whom a sudden calamity befalls that destroys his wealth, so he may also ask (for help) until he reaches a state of proper subsistence. The third is the person who is struck by hunger, so three men from his people should go with him and testify that so-and-so has been struck by hunger, so he may also ask (for help) until he reaches a state of proper subsistence, then when he reaches that state, he should stop. Other than these, whatever is asked for is unlawful, and whoever eats from it, eats what is unlawful.”
Hadith 408
Mujahid says: A man came to Sayyiduna Hasan and Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them) and asked them for something, so they said: Asking is only permissible for three types of people: one in severe need, or under a heavy guarantee, or in crushing debt. Then they gave him what he needed. Then he went to Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) and he also gave him something, without asking anything. The man said: I went to your cousins and they questioned me, but you did not. Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) said: They are the sons of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and they make knowledge into morsels and teach it.
