English translation

1634. 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr narrated from the Prophet ﷺ: "Charity is not allowed (to take) for a rich person, nor for a strong, healthy person." (Hasan) Abū Dāwūd said: Sufyān reported it from Sa'd bin Ibrāhīm, just as Ibrāhīm said it. And Shu'bah reported it from Sa'd; he said: "...a strong person." Some of the others had it from the Prophet ﷺ: "...a strong person" and 'Aṭā' bin Zuhair said that he met 'Abdullāh bin 'Amr, so he said: "Charity is not lawful for the strong, nor the one who is healthy."

1634 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْأَنْبَارِيُّ الْخُتُّلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ رَيْحَانَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تَحِلُّ الصَّدَقَةُ لِغَنِيٍّ، وَلَا لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ»، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: رَوَاهُ سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، كَمَا قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ. وَرَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ قَالَ: «لِذِي مِرَّةٍ قَوِيٍّ»، وَالْأَحَادِيثُ الْأُخَرُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَعْضُهَا: «لِذِي مِرَّةٍ قَوِيٍّ، وَبَعْضُهَا لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ» وَقَالَ عَطَاءُ بْنُ زُهَيْرٍ: أَنَّهُ لَقِيَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو، فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ الصَّدَقَةَ لَا تَحِلُّ لِقَوِيٍّ، وَلَا لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ»
