653. Ḥubshī bin Junādah As-Salūli narrated: "During the Farewell Hajj, while the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was standing at 'Arafat, a Bedouin came to him begging while pulling on the edge of his Ridā'. He gave him something and he left. With that, begging was made unlawful, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Begging is not lawful for the rich nor for the physically fit, except for
the one who is severely poor or in perilous debt. And whoever begs the people (merely) to increase his wealth, then on the Day of Judgement (the wealth he begged for) will be lacerations on his face and heated coals from Hell will be provided for him to eat. Whoever wishes, let him take a little, and whoever wishes, then let him take a lot.” (Da'if)

Commentary
This Hadīth also proves that a person should work hard to earn according to his best ability, and he should not stretch a begging hand before others.
