English narration

Narrated by حواء الأنصارية

Narrated Umm Bujayd: She took the oath of allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said to him: Messenger of Allah, a poor man stands at my door, but I find nothing to give him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her: If you do not find anything to give him, put something in his hand, even though it should be a burnt hoof.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ بُجَيْدٍ ، عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ أُمِّ بُجَيْدٍ وَكَانَتْ مِمَّنْ بَايَعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ لَهُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ ، إِنَّ الْمِسْكِينَ لَيَقُومُ عَلَى بَابِي فَمَا أَجِدُ لَهُ شَيْئًا أُعْطِيهِ إِيَّاهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : "

إِنْ لَمْ تَجِدِي لَهُ شَيْئًا تُعْطِينَهُ إِيَّاهُ إِلَّا ظِلْفًا مُحْرَقًا فَادْفَعِيهِ إِلَيْهِ فِي يَدِهِ
