Shahih Muslim - 1676

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Bakar bin Abi Syaibah] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abu Usamah] dari [Syu'bah] dari [Sa'id bin Abu Burdah] dari [bapaknya] dari [kakeknya] dari Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam, beliau bersabda: "Setiap orang mukmin wajib bersedekah." Lalu ditanyakanlah kepada beliau, "Bagaimana kalau dia tidak sanggup?" Beliau menjawab: "Hendaknya ia bekerja untuk dapat memberi manfaat kepada dirinya sendiri dan supaya ia dapat bersedekah." Ditanyakan lagi pada beliau, "Bagaimana kalau dia tidak sanggup." Beliau menjawab: "Hendaknya ia membantu orang yang dalam kesulitan." Ditanyakan lagi pada beliau, "Bagaimana kalau dia tidak sanggup." Beliau menjawab, "Hendaknya ia menyuruh kepada yang ma'ruf atau kebaikan." Orang itu bertanya lagi, "Bagaimana kalau dia tidak sanggup juga?" beliau menjawab: "Hendaklah ia mencegah diri dari perbuatan buruk, sebab itu juga merupakan sedekah." Dan telah menceritakannya kepada kami [Muhammad bin Al Mutsanna] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Abdurrahman bin Mahdi] Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dengan isnad ini. (HR. Muslim: 1676)

Sa'id b. Abu Burda reported on the authority of his grandfather that the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: Giving of Sadaqa is essential for every Muslim. It was said (to him): What do you say of him who does not find (the means) to do so? He said: Let him work with both his hands, thus doing benefit to himself and give Sadaqa. It was said to him: What about him who does not have (the means) to do so? He said: Then let him assist the needy, the aggrieved. It was said: What do you say of one who cannot even do this? He said: Then he should enjoin what is reputable or what is good. He said: What about him if he cannot do that? He (the Holy Prophet) said: He should then abstain from evil, for verify that is Sadaqa on his behalf. This hadith has been narrated by Shu'ba with the same chain of transmitters. (Muslim: 1676)
