[2355] 72 - (1018) It was narrated that Abû Mas'ûd said: "We were commanded to give charity - and we were bearers (who carried goods for payment). Abû 'Aqîl gave half a Ṣâ' in charity and someone brought more than that. The hypocrites said: 'Allâh has no need of the charity of this man, and the other one only did it to show off.'

Arabic text

72 - (1018) حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ح وحَدَّثَنِيهِ بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لَهُ - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: «أُمِرْنَا بِالصَّدَقَةِ» قَالَ: كُنَّا نُحَامِلُ، قَالَ فَتَصَدَّقَ أَبُو عَقِيلٍ بِنِصْفِ صَاعٍ، قَالَ: وَجَاءَ إِنْسَانٌ بِشَيْءٍ أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُ، فَقَالَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ: إِنَّ اللهَ لَغَنِيٌّ عَنْ صَدَقَةِ هَذَا، وَمَا فَعَلَ هَذَا الْآخَرُ إِلَّا رِيَاءً، فَنَزَلَتْ: {الَّذِينَ يَلْمِزُونَ الْمُطَّوِّعِينَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فِي الصَّدَقَاتِ وَالَّذِينَ لَا يَجِدُونَ إِلَّا جُهْدَهُمْ} [التوبة: 79] وَلَمْ يَلْفِظْ بِشْرٌ بِالْمُطَّوِّعِينَ
