2572. It was narrated from Abû Hurairah that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "The poor man (Miskîn) is not the one who leaves if you give him a date or two, or a morsel or two. Rather the poor man is the one who refrains from asking. Recite if you wish: "They do not beg of people at all..."[1] (Sahîh)
2571 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْماَعِيلُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي تَرُدُّهُ التَّمْرَةُ، وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ، وَاللُّقْمَةُ، وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ، إِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ الْمُتَعَفِّفُ اقْرَءُوا إِنْ شِئْتُمْ {لَا يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا} [البقرة: 273] "

"Poor (Miskin) are not the one", because the people of this kind are generally professional beggars, and are wealthier than others.
