بَابُ مَا يُكْرَهُ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِWhat is Disliked in Charity
Hadith 1848
وَحَدَّثَنِي، عَنْ مَالِك، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اسْتَعْمَلَ رَجُلًا مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْأَشْهَلِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ، فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ سَأَلَهُ إِبِلًا مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ، فَغَضِبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى عُرِفَ الْغَضَبُ فِي وَجْهِهِ، وَكَانَ مِمَّا يُعْرَفُ بِهِ الْغَضَبُ فِي وَجْهِهِ أَنْ تَحْمَرَّ عَيْنَاهُ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ لَيَسْأَلُنِي مَا لَا يَصْلُحُ لِي وَلَا لَهُ، فَإِنْ مَنَعْتُهُ كَرِهْتُ الْمَنْعَ، وَإِنْ أَعْطَيْتُهُ أَعْطَيْتُهُ مَا لَا يَصْلُحُ لِي وَلَا لَهُ "، فَقَالَ الرَّجُلُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، لَا أَسْأَلُكَ مِنْهَا شَيْئًا أَبَدًا
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Bakr bin Muhammad bin Amr bin Hazm that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, appointed a man from among Banu Abd al-Ashhal to collect charity. When he returned, he asked the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, for a camel from the charity (in addition to his wages). The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, became angry to the extent that anger was visible on his blessed face. And the sign of his anger was that his eyes would become red. Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Some people ask me for things which are not appropriate for me or for them to be given. If I do not give, I feel bad (because generosity was his natural disposition), and if I give, I give something which is not right to give to him." That person said: O Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him! Now I will not ask you for anything from it.
