It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever begs while he has enough to meet his needs, he will come on the Day of Resurrection with his face scratched." The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! What is meant by 'enough to meet his needs'? He said: "Fifty dirhams or its equivalent in gold."
