Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 5470 — Sayyiduna Abu Dharr took his stipend

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ : وَجَدْتُ فِي كِتَابِ أَبِي ، بِخَطِّهِ : ثَنَا مُسْتَلِمُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورِ بْنِ زَاذَانَ ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ ، أَنَّ أَبَا ذَرٍّ أَخَذَ عَطَاءَهُ ، فَانْطَلَقَ مَعَ الْخَادِمِ لِيَشْتَرِيَ حَوَائِجَهُ مِنَ السُّوقِ ، ثُمَّ ابْتَاعَ بِمَا بَقِيَ فُلُوسًا ، فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : مَنْ أَوْكَى عَلَى ذَهَبٍ أَوْ فِضَّةٍ ، لَمْ يُنْفِقْهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ كَانَ جَمْرًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ يُكْوَى بِهِ .
It is narrated from Abdullah bin al-Samit (may Allah have mercy on him) that Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) took his stipend (allowance) and went with a servant to the market to buy what he needed. Then, with whatever was left, he bought copper coins (fulus) and gave them away in charity. Then he said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: 'Whoever ties up gold or silver and stores it away, and does not spend it in the way of Allah, it will become a burning coal on the Day of Resurrection with which he will be branded.'"
