(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ ، حَدَّثَنَا
لَيْثٌ ، عَنْ
خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ
سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ ، عَنْ
أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ : أَتَى رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي ذُو مَالٍ كَثِيرٍ ، وَذُو أَهْلٍ وَوَلَدٍ وَحَاضِرَةٍ فَأَخْبِرْنِي كَيْفَ أُنْفِقُ ، وَكَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ ؟ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " تُخْرِجُ الزَّكَاةَ مِنْ مَالِكَ ، فَإِنَّهَا طُهْرَةٌ تُطَهِّرُكَ ، وَتَصِلُ أَقْرِبَاءَكَ ، وَتَعْرِفُ حَقَّ السَّائِلِ وَالْجَارِ وَالْمِسْكِينِ " ، فَقَالَ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَقْلِلْ لِي ، قَالَ : " فَآتِ ذَا الْقُرْبَى حَقَّهُ ، وَالْمِسْكِينَ ، وَابْنَ السَّبِيلِ ، وَلَا تُبَذِّرْ تَبْذِيرًا " ، فَقَالَ : حَسْبِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِذَا أَدَّيْتُ الزَّكَاةَ إِلَى رَسُولِكَ ، فَقَدْ بَرِئْتُ مِنْهَا إِلَى اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ؟ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " نَعَمْ ، إِذَا أَدَّيْتَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِي فَقَدْ بَرِئْتَ مِنْهَا ، فَلَكَ أَجْرُهَا ، وَإِثْمُهَا عَلَى مَنْ بَدَّلَهَا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man from Banu Tamim came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! I am a very wealthy man, with family and relatives. Tell me how I should spend and on what I should spend?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Give the zakat of your wealth, for that will purify your wealth. Maintain ties with your close relatives. Give the needy, neighbors, and the poor their due rights, and do not be extravagant." He said, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Is this sufficient for me? When I hand over the zakat of my wealth to your envoy, will I be absolved in the sight of Allah and His Messenger?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Yes! When you give the zakat to my envoy, you have fulfilled your obligation, and you will receive its reward, and the sin will be upon the one who changes it."
