2212. Narrated 'Urwa: I heard 'Aishah saying, "The Holy Verse: '...Whoever amongst guardians is rich, he should take no wages but if he is poor, let him have for himself what is just and reasonable (according to his labour)' (V.4 : 6), was revealed concerning the guardian of the orphans who looks after them and manages favourably their financial affairs; if the guardian is poor, he could have from it what is just and reasonable (according to his labour)."

2212 - حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامٌ، ح وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَّامٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ فَرْقَدٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ هِشَامَ بْنَ عُرْوَةَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، تَقُولُ: {وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا، فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ وَمَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا، فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ} [النساء: 6]، أُنْزِلَتْ فِي وَالِي اليَتِيمِ الَّذِي يُقِيمُ عَلَيْهِ وَيُصْلِحُ فِي مَالِهِ، إِنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا أَكَلَ مِنْهُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ
