English translation

4668. Narrated Abū Mus‘ūd: When we were ordered to give in Ṣadaqa (charity), we used to start to work as porters (to earn something we could give in charity). Abū ‘Aquil came with one-half of a Ṣā‘ (special measure for food grains) and another person brought more than he did. So, the hypocrites said, “Allāh is not in need of the Ṣadaqa of this (i.e., ‘Aquil); and this other person did not give Ṣadaqa but for showing off.” Then Allāh revealed: “Those who defame such of the believers who give charity (in Allāh’s Cause) voluntarily and those who could not find to give charity (in Allāh’s cause) except what is available to them..." (V.9:79)

4668 - حَدَّثَنِي بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: " لَمَّا أُمِرْنَا بِالصَّدَقَةِ كُنَّا نَتَحَامَلُ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو عَقِيلٍ بِنِصْفِ صَاعٍ، وَجَاءَ إِنْسَانٌ بِأَكْثَرَ مِنْهُ، فَقَالَ المُنَافِقُونَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ صَدَقَةِ هَذَا، وَمَا فَعَلَ هَذَا الآخَرُ إِلَّا رِئَاءً، فَنَزَلَتْ: {الَّذِينَ يَلْمِزُونَ المُطَّوِّعِينَ مِنَ المُؤْمِنِينَ فِي الصَّدَقَاتِ، وَالَّذِينَ لاَ يَجِدُونَ إِلَّا جُهْدَهُمْ} [التوبة: 79] " الآيَةَ
