Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 10985 — Those who disliked begging
١٠٩٨٥ - حدثنا ابن نمير عن هشام عن أبيه عن الزبير قال: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: "لئن يأخذ أحدكم (حبلًا) فيذهب فيأتي بحزمة من حطب (على ظهره) (١) فيبيعها فيكف المئه بها وجهه، خير له من أن يسأل الناس شيئًا أعطوه أو منعوه" (٢).
Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That one of you takes a rope, goes and brings a bundle of firewood on his back, and sells it, and through it Allah Almighty saves his face (from the disgrace of begging), is better for him than asking people for something, whether they give him or refuse him."
