Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ حَدَّثَنَا بَكْرُ بْنُ مُضَرَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ أَنَّ سَعِيدَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ أَبَا الْحُبَابِ أخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ مُؤْمِنٍ تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ مِنْ طَيِّبٍ وَلَا يَقْبَلُ اللَّهُ إِلَّا طَيِّبًا وَلَا يَصْعَدُ السَّمَاءَ إِلَّا طَيِّبٌ إِلَّا وَهُوَ يَضَعُهَا فِي يَدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَوْ فِي كَفِّ الرَّحْمَنِ فَيُرَبِّيهَا لَهُ كَمَا يُرَبِّي أَحَدُكُمْ فَلُوَّهُ أَوْ فَصِيلَهُ حَتَّى إِنَّ التَّمْرَةَ لَتَكُونُ مِثْلَ الْجَبَلِ الْعَظِيمِ.
English Translation
Qutaybah narrated to us, Bakr ibn Mudar narrated to us, from Ibn Ajlan, that Sa'id ibn Yasar Abu al-Hubab informed him, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "No believing servant gives charity from good earnings - and Allah does not accept anything except what is good, and nothing ascends to the heavens except what is good - except that he places it in the hand of the Most Merciful, or in the palm of the Most Merciful, and He nurtures it for him as one of you nurtures his foal or young camel, until the date becomes like a great mountain."
