Ḥadīth | Ṭabarānī (الطبراني) tabarani:11070 حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْمَعْمَرِيُّ ثنا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْمَدِينِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ الْأَعْرَجِ عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ أَنَّ فِتْيَانًا مِنْ بَنِي هَاشِمٍ أَتَوُا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ اسْتَعْمِلْنَا عَلَى هَذِهِ الصَّدَقَةِ نَصِيبُ مِنْهَا مَا يُصِيبُ النَّاسُ وَنُؤَدِّي كَمَا يُؤَدُّونَ فَقَالَ «إِنَّا آلَ مُحَمَّدٍ لَا تَحِلُّ لَنَا الصَّدَقَةُ وَهِي أَوْسَاخُ النَّاسِ وَلَكِنْ مَا ظَنُّكُمْ إِذَا أَنَا أَخَذْتُ بِحَلْقَةِ الْجَنَّةِ هَلْ أُوثِرَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَحَدًا»
English Translation
Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that some young men from Banu Hashim came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, appoint us over this charity so we may benefit from it as the people do, and we will fulfill it as they do.' He said: 'Indeed, we, the family of Muhammad, charity is not permissible for us, for it is the impurities of the people. But what do you think, when I take hold of the ring of the gate of Paradise, will I give preference to anyone over you?'
