(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، عَنْ رَائِطَةَ امْرَأَةِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَكَانَتْ امْرَأَةً صَنَاعًا ، وَكَانَتْ تَبِيعُ وَتَصَدَّقُ ، فَقَالَتْ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ يَوْمًا : لَقَدْ شَغَلْتَنِي أَنْتَ وَوَلَدُكَ ، فَمَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ مَعَكُمْ . فَقَالَ : مَا أُحِبُّ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي ذَلِكَ أَجْرٌ أَنْ تَفْعَلِي ، فَسَأَلَا عَنْ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَكِ أَجْرُ مَا أَنْفَقْتِ عَلَيْهِمْ " .
Sayyidah Ra’it, who was a skilled woman and used to trade and also give charity in the way of Allah, one day said to her husband, Sayyiduna Abdullah: “You and your children have prevented me from giving charity to others, and I am not able to give anything in charity to others in your presence.” Sayyiduna Abdullah said to her: “By Allah, if there were no reward for you in this, I would not like it.” So she asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about this and said: “O Messenger of Allah! I am a skilled woman and I do trade, and apart from this, I have no other means for the sustenance of myself, my husband, and my children. So these people have prevented me from giving charity, and I am not able to give anything in charity in their presence. Will I get any reward for what I spend on them?” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Keep spending, for whatever you spend on them, you will surely get its reward.”

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، عَنْ رَائِطَةَ امْرَأَةِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَأُمِّ وَلَدِهِ وَكَانَتْ امْرَأَةً صَنَاعَ الْيَدِ ، قَالَ : فَكَانَتْ تُنْفِقُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى وَلَدِهِ مِنْ صَنْعَتِهَا ، قَالَتْ : فَقُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ : لَقَدْ شَغَلْتَنِي أَنْتَ وَوَلَدُكَ عَنِ الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَمَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ مَعَكُمْ بِشَيْءٍ , فَقَالَ لَهَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ : وَاللَّهِ مَا أُحِبُّ إِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ فِي ذَلِكَ أَجْرٌ أَنْ تَفْعَلِي , فَأَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقَالَتْ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ صَنْعَةٍ أَبِيعُ مِنْهَا ، وَلَيْسَ لِي وَلَا لِوَلَدِي وَلَا لِزَوْجِي نَفَقَةٌ غَيْرَهَا ، وَقَدْ شَغَلُونِي عَنِ الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَمَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَتَصَدَّقَ بِشَيْءٍ ، فَهَلْ لِي مِنْ أَجْرٍ فِيمَا أَنْفَقْتُ ؟ قَالَ : فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَنْفِقِي عَلَيْهِمْ ، فَإِنَّ لَكِ فِي ذَلِكَ أَجْرَ مَا أَنْفَقْتِ عَلَيْهِمْ " .
