English translation

2550. It was narrated that Abû Umâmah bin Sahl bin Hunaif said: "One day we were sitting in the Masjid with a group of the Muhâjirîn and Anshâr. We sent a man to 'Aishah to ask permission to come to her. She said: 'A beggar came in to me one day when the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was present, and I ordered that he be given something, then I called for it and looked at it. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: Do you want that nothing should enter or leave your house without your knowledge? I said: 'Yes.' He said: "Don't be hasty, O 'Aishah. Do not count what you give, otherwise Allâh will count what He gives to you." (Hasan)

2549 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَكَمِ، عَنْ شُعَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ، عَنْ أُمَيَّةَ بْنِ هِنْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ، قَالَ: كُنَّا يَوْمًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ جُلُوسًا، وَنَفَرٌ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِينَ وَالْأَنْصَارِ فَأَرْسَلْنَا رَجُلًا إِلَى عَائِشَةَ لِيَسْتَأْذِنَ، فَدَخَلْنَا عَلَيْهَا، قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ سَائِلٌ مَرَّةً، وَعِنْدِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَمَرْتُ لَهُ بِشَيْءٍ، ثُمَّ دَعَوْتُ بِهِ، فَنَظَرْتُ إِلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «أَمَا تُرِيدِينَ أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَ بَيْتَكِ شَيْءٌ، وَلَا يَخْرُجَ، إِلَّا بِعِلْمِكِ» قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ، قَالَ: «مَهْلًا يَا عَائِشَةُ، لَا تُحْصِي، فَيُحْصِيَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَلَيْكِ»

Commentary

As we covet that Allâh give us unreckoned sustenance, in the same way we should make it our constant practice of giving charities without calculating, because the recompenses of deeds are in accord with one another.
