[2400] 106 - (1042) It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: “I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: ‘For one of you to go out and gather firewood on his back, then give it in charity and make himself independent of people thereby, is better than asking a man who may give to him or withhold from him. And the upper hand is better than the lower hand, and start with those who are under your care.’”
106 - (1042) حَدَّثَنِي هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ بَيَانٍ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ قَيْسِ بْنِ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: «لَأَنْ يَغْدُوَ أَحَدُكُمْ، فَيَحْطِبَ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ، فَيَتَصَدَّقَ بِهِ وَيَسْتَغْنِيَ بِهِ مِنَ النَّاسِ، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ رَجُلًا، أَعْطَاهُ أَوْ مَنَعَهُ ذَلِكَ، فَإِنَّ الْيَدَ الْعُلْيَا أَفْضَلُ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى، وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ»
