Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah 2334 — 62| Chapter on the evidence

وَفَضْلِ السِّعَايَةِ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ إِذَا عَدَلَ السَّاعِي فِيمَا يَتَوَلَّى مِنْهَا، وَتَشْبِيهِهِ بِالْغَازِي فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ
And the explanation of the virtue of that tax collector who acts justly in his work, and the explanation of likening him to a warrior (ghazi) striving in the way of Allah.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْوَهْبِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ مَحْمُودِ بْنِ لَبِيدٍ ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " الْعَامِلُ عَلَى الصَّدَقَةِ بِالْحَقِّ كَالْغَازِي فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ حَتَّى يَرْجِعَ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ "
Sayyiduna Rafi' bin Khadij (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The one who collects Zakat with justice and fairness is like a warrior fighting in the way of Allah, until he returns to his home."
