Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ صَدَقَةٌ قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ قَالَ يَعْمَلُ بِيَدِهِ فَيَنْفَعُ نَفْسَهُ وَيَتَصَدَّقُ قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ قَالَ يُعِينُ ذَا الْحَاجَةِ الْمَلْهُوفَ قَالَ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ قَالَ يَأْمُرُ بِالْخَيْرِ أَوْ بِالْعَدْلِ قَالَ أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ قَالَ يُمْسِكُ عَنْ الشَّرِّ فَإِنَّهُ لَهُ صَدَقَةٌ.
English Translation
Abd al-Rahman narrated to us: Shu'ba narrated to us, from Sa'id b. Abi Burda, from his father, from his grandfather: that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Every Muslim owes a charity." He said: "What if he cannot find the means?" He said: "He works with his hand, benefiting himself, and gives in charity." He said: "What if he is unable to do that?" He said: "He helps the needy, the distressed." He said: "What if he does not do that?" He said: "He enjoins good, or justice." He said: "What if he is unable to do that?" He said: "He refrains from evil, for that is a charity for him."
