Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 8802 — a man from Banu Tamim came to the Messenger

حَدَّثَنَا مُطَّلِبٌ : نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ : حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ قَالَ : أَتَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، إِنِّي رَجُلٌ ذُو مَالٍ كَثِيرٍ ، وَذُو أَهْلٍ ، وَذُو حَاضِرَةٍ ، فَأَخْبِرْنِي كَيْفَ أُنْفِقُ ؟ وَكَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: تُخْرِجُ الزَّكَاةَ مِنْ مَالِكَ ، فَإِنَّهُ طُهْرٌ يُطَهِّرُكَ ، وَتَصِلُ أَقَارِبَكَ ، وَتَعْرِفُ حَقَّ السَّائِلِ وَالْجَارِ وَالْمِسْكِينِ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، أَقْلِلْ لِي ، قَالَ : I " فَآتِ ذَا الْقُرْبَى حَقَّهُ ، وَالْمِسْكِينَ ، وَابْنَ السَّبِيلِ ، وَلَا تُبَذِّرْ تَبْذِيرًا I " قَالَ : حَسْبِي يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِذَا أَدَّيْتُ الزَّكَاةَ إِلَى رَسُولِكَ فَقَدْ بَرِئْتُ مِنْهَا إِلَى اللهِ وَإِلَى رَسُولِهِ ؟ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: I " نَعَمْ ، إِذَا أَدَّيْتَ الزَّكَاةَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَدْ بَرِئْتَ مِنْهَا ، وَلَكَ أَجْرُهَا ، وَإِثْمُهَا عَلَى مَنْ بَدَّلَهَا .
لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ أَنَسٍ إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : اللَّيْثُ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man from Banu Tamim came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: "O Messenger of Allah, I am a man of great wealth, with a family, and guests and visitors keep coming to my house; so tell me how I should spend and what course I should adopt." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Take out the zakah from your wealth, for it is a purification that will purify you; maintain ties with your relatives; and recognise the right of the one who asks, the neighbour and the poor." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, make it less for me." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Give the relative his right, and the poor and the traveller as well, and do not be extravagant." He said: "O Messenger of Allah, this is enough for me: when I have paid the zakah to your messenger, am I then free of it before Allah and His Messenger?" So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes, when you have paid the zakah to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), you are free of it; you will have its reward, and its sin will be upon the one who alters it."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain; al-Layth (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
