English translation

[2333] 55 - (1008) It was narrated from Sa'eed bin Abî Burdah, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Every Muslim must give charity." It was said: "What if he cannot find anything (to give)?" He said: "Let him work with his hands and benefit himself and give charity." It was said: "What if he cannot do that?" He said: "Let him assist the one who is in desperate need." It was said to him: "What if he cannot do that?" He said: "Let him enjoin what is right or good." He said: "What if he does not do that?" He said: "Let him refrain from doing evil, and that is an act of charity."

55 - (1008) حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «عَلَى كُلِّ مُسْلِمٍ صَدَقَةٌ» قِيلَ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ؟ قَالَ «يَعْتَمِلُ بِيَدَيْهِ فَيَنْفَعُ نَفْسَهُ وَيَتَصَدَّقُ» قَالَ قِيلَ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ؟ قَالَ: «يُعِينُ ذَا الْحَاجَةِ الْمَلْهُوفَ» قَالَ قِيلَ لَهُ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ؟ قَالَ: «يَأْمُرُ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ أَوِ الْخَيْرِ» قَالَ: أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ؟ قَالَ: «يُمْسِكُ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ»
