Bayhaqi 7828 — The forms of charity, and the charity due each day

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ الْقَاضِي، ثنا حَاجِبُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَمَّادٍ، ثنا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ، عَنْ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ الْأَنْمَارِيِّ، قَالَ: " ضَرَبَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثَلَ الدُّنْيَا مَثَلَ أَرْبَعَةٍ مِنَّا، رَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللهُ عِلْمًا وَآتَاهُ مَالًا فَهُوَ يَعْمَلُ بِعِلْمِهِ فِي مَالِهِ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللهُ عِلْمًا وَلَمْ يُؤْتِهِ مَالًا فَهُوَ يَقُولُ: لَوْ آتَانِيَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ فُلَانٌ لَفَعَلْتُ فِيهِ مِثْلَ مَا يَفْعَلُ، فَهُمَا فِي الْأَجْرِ سَوَاءٌ، وَرَجُلٌ آتَاهُ اللهُ مَالًا وَلَمْ يُؤْتِهِ عِلْمًا، فَهُوَ يَمْنَعُهُ مِنْ حَقِّهِ وَيُنْفِقُهُ فِي الْبَاطِلِ، وَرَجُلٌ لَمْ يُؤْتِهِ اللهُ عِلْمًا وَلَا مَالًا، فَهُوَ يَقُولُ: لَوْ أَنَّ اللهَ آتَانِي مِثْلَ مَا أُوتِيَ فُلَانٌ لَفَعَلْتُ فِيهِ مِثْلَ مَا يَفْعَلُ، فَهُمَا فِي الْوِزْرِ سَوَاءٌ ". كَذَا رَوَاهُ الْأَعْمَشُ -.
Sayyiduna Abu Kabshah al-Anmari (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) set out before us a parable of this world, and gave the example of four men among us: "A person to whom Allah gave knowledge and also gave wealth, so he spends from his wealth in accordance with his knowledge; and a person to whom Allah gave knowledge but did not give wealth, so he says: 'If Allah were to give me the like of what He gave so-and-so, I would do with it just as he does,' so the two of them are equal in reward; and a person who was given wealth but has no knowledge, so he withholds it from its due and spends it in falsehood; and a person to whom Allah gave neither knowledge nor wealth, so he says: 'If Allah were to give me what so-and-so was given, I too would do with it just as so-and-so does,' so the two of them are equal in the burden (of sin)."
