باب: ما يستدل به على أن قوله صلى الله عليه وسلم: " خير الصدقة ما كان عن ظهر غنى " وقوله حين سئل عن أفضل الصدقة: " جهد من مقل " إنما يختلف باختلاف أحوال الناس في الصبر على الشدة والفاقة والاكتفاء بأقل الكفاية، وبالله التوفيق
Chapter: Evidence that his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) "The best charity is that given out of surplus" and his saying, when asked about the best charity, "The effort of one who has little" differ only according to people's states in patience with hardship and poverty and contentment with the barest sufficiency, and success is from Allah
Bayhaqi Q7774 — Evidence that his saying ﷺ "The best charity"
اُردوEn
بَابُ مَا يُسْتَدَلُّ بِهِ عَلَى أَنَّ قَوْلَهُ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا كَانَ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى " وَقَوْلَهُ حِينَ سُئِلَ عَنْ أَفْضَلِ الصَّدَقَةِ: " جَهْدٌ مِنْ مُقِلٍّ " إِنَّمَا يَخْتَلِفُ بِاخْتِلَافِ أَحْوَالِ النَّاسِ فِي الصَّبْرِ عَلَى الشِّدَّةِ وَالْفَاقَةِ وَالِاكْتِفَاءِ بِأَقَلِّ الْكِفَايَةِ، وَبِاللهِ التَّوْفِيقُ.
Chapter: The evidence that his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying, "The best charity is that which is given in a state of self-sufficiency (wealth)," and his saying when he was asked about the most excellent charity, "A poor person giving something from the effort of his labour," (the difference between these two hadiths) is in fact due to the difference in people's conditions with regard to patience upon hardship and starvation and contentment with the barest sufficiency. And success is only from Allah.
