اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، قال : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ ، عَنْ عِيَاضِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قال : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ ، يَقُولُ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ بِهَيْئَةٍ بَذَّةٍ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " أَصَلَّيْتَ " , قَالَ : لَا , قَالَ : " صَلِّ رَكْعَتَيْنِ " ، وَحَثَّ النَّاسَ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ ، فَأَلْقَوْا ثِيَابًا فَأَعْطَاهُ مِنْهَا ثَوْبَيْنِ ، فَلَمَّا كَانَتِ الْجُمُعَةُ الثَّانِيَةُ جَاءَ وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَخْطُبُ ، فَحَثَّ النَّاسَ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ قَالَ : فَأَلْقَى أَحَدَ ثَوْبَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " جَاءَ هَذَا يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ بِهَيْئَةٍ بَذَّةٍ ، فَأَمَرْتُ النَّاسَ بِالصَّدَقَةِ فَأَلْقَوْا ثِيَابًا ، فَأَمَرْتُ لَهُ مِنْهَا بِثَوْبَيْنِ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ الْآنَ فَأَمَرْتُ النَّاسَ بِالصَّدَقَةِ فَأَلْقَى أَحَدَهُمَا فَانْتَهَرَهُ , وَقَالَ : خُذْ ثَوْبَكَ " .
´It was narrated that Iyad bin 'Abdullah said:` "I heard Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri say: 'A man who appeared shabbily came on a Friday, while the Prophet (ﷺ) was delivering the Khutbah. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said to him: 'Have you prayed?" He said: 'No." He said: 'Pray two rak'ahs.' And he urged the people to give in charity. They gave clothes, and he gave him two garments. The following Friday, he came when the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was delivering the khutbah, and he urged the people to give charity. (That man) gave one of his two garments and the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'This man came last Friday looking shabby, and I commanded the people to give charity and they gave clothes, and I said that he should be given two garments, and now he came and I commanded the people to give charity and he gave one of them. So he chided him and said: Take your garment.'"

Explanation & Benefits
Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
1409. Commentary:
➊ The Prophet did not encourage charity in his sermon because of the arrival of this person; rather, it was part of his sermon. Later, considering his impoverished condition, he was also given two garments along with the other poor people. The Hanafis say: "The Prophet commanded him to perform two units (rak‘ah) of prayer so that people, upon seeing his destitute state, would give him charity. Therefore, the command to perform two units of prayer was not general, but specific to him." However, if that were the case, then all the clothes and charity should have been given to him alone. Moreover, there is also a separate command regarding these two units of prayer.
➋ The imam should be mindful of the conditions and circumstances of his followers.
➌ A person should not give in charity something of which he himself is in dire need.

(1) "Pray two rak‘ahs." The fact that every Friday the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) instructed him to pray two rak‘ahs is evidence that a person who arrives during the sermon (khutbah) must necessarily pray two rak‘ahs. This cannot be refuted by saying that the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) only commanded him to pray so that people would see his condition and give him charity, because this occurred on the third Friday. If this had been the purpose on the first two Fridays, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) would have ordered charity on the spot, just as he did on the third Friday. Furthermore, the command for charity was general; that is why only two garments were given to the newcomer, and even after that, the command for charity was given. Thus, this charity was not only for that person.
(2) "He was rebuked." It is understood from this that giving charity to a needy person is not obligatory; rather, he will be prevented from asking.
