Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَا صَدَقَةَ إِلَّا عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنًى وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنْ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ.
English Translation
Ya'la ibn Ubayd told us, Abd al-Malik told us, from Ata', from Abu Hurayrah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "There is no charity except out of surplus wealth, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and begin with those you are responsible for."
