Charity to a poor person able to earn: Abu Hanifah permitted charity to him and said it is valid

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "I have taken your camel for four dinars, and you have its back (the right to ride it) as far as Madinah."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): I sold it (the camel) to him for one uqiyah, and I made an exception for myself of riding the animal as far as my home. When I reached Madinah, I came to him. He paid me the money and said: "Do you think that I was getting you to lower the price so that I could take both your camel and your money? Both of them are yours." People state that this was not the opinion of (Imam) Abu Hanifah on this issue.
