English translation

2592. It was narrated that Qabiṣah bin Mukhârîq said: "I heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'It is not right to ask (for help) except in three cases: A man whose wealth has been destroyed by some calamity, so he asks until he gets enough to keep him going, then he refrains from asking; a man who undertakes a financial responsibility, and asks for help until he pays off whatever needs to be paid; and a man concerning whom three wise men from his own people swear by Allâh that it is permissible for so-and-so to ask for help, so he asks until he has enough to be independent of means, then he refrains from asking. Apart from that, (asking) is unlawful.'" (Ṣaḥîh)

2591 - أَخْبَرَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى وَهُوَ ابْنُ حَمْزَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ رِئَابٍ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، عَنْ قَبِيصَةَ بْنِ مُخَارِقٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: " لَا تَصْلُحُ الْمَسْأَلَةُ إِلَّا لِثَلَاثَةٍ رَجُلٍ: أَصَابَتْ مَالَهُ جَائِحَةٌ، فَيَسْأَلُ حَتَّى يُصِيبَ سِدَادًا مِنْ عَيْشٍ، ثُمَّ يُمْسِكُ، وَرَجُلٍ تَحَمَّلَ حَمَالَةً، فَيَسْأَلُ حَتَّى يُؤَدِّيَ إِلَيْهِمْ حَمَالَتَهُمْ، ثُمَّ يُمْسِكُ عَنِ الْمَسْأَلَةِ، وَرَجُلٍ يَحْلِفُ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ مِنْ قَوْمِهِ مِنْ ذَوِي الْحِجَا بِاللَّهِ، لَقَدْ حَلَّتِ الْمَسْأَلَةُ لِفُلَانٍ، فَيَسْأَلُ حَتَّى يُصِيبَ قِوَامًا مِنْ مَعِيشَةٍ، ثُمَّ يُمْسِكُ عَنِ الْمَسْأَلَةِ، فَمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ سُحْتٌ "
