Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 616
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رضي الله عنها، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ، قَالَ: لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، تَرُدُّهُ اللقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ، وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ، وَلكِنِ الْمِسْكِينُ لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ، وَلَا يُفْطَنُ بِهِ فَيُتَصَدَّقُ عَلَيْهِ، وَلَا يَقُومُ فَيَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ.
Abu Hurairah Narrated from:
Allâh's Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, "Al-Miskîn (the poor) is not the one who goes round the people and asks them for a mouthful or two (of meals) or a date or two; but Miskîn (the poor) is that who has not enough (money) to satisfy his needs and whose condition is not known to others, that others may give him something in charity, and who does not beg of people." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 557, Vol. 2 )
