Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ زَيْنَبَ ابْنَةِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ بَنِي أَبِي سَلَمَةَ فِي حِجْرِي وَلَيْسَ لَهُمْ شَيْءٌ إِلَّا مَا أَنْفَقْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَسْتُ بِتَارِكَتِهِمْ كَذَا وَلَا كَذَا أَفَلِي أَجْرٌ إِنْ أَنْفَقْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْفِقِي عَلَيْهِمْ فَإِنَّ لَكِ أَجْرَ مَا أَنْفَقْتِ عَلَيْهِمْ.
English Translation
Narrated to us by Abd al-Razzaq, who said: Ma'mar narrated to us, from Hisham ibn Urwah, from his father, from Zaynab bint Abi Salamah, from Umm Salamah, that she said: "O Messenger of Allah, the sons of Abu Salamah are under my care, and they have nothing except what I spend on them, and I will not abandon them in such a way - do I have a reward if I spend on them?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Spend on them, for you shall have the reward of what you spend on them."
