حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَی بْنُ يُونُسَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْکَةَ دَخَلْنَا عَلَی ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ أَلَا تَعْجَبُونَ لِابْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ قَامَ فِي أَمْرِهِ هَذَا فَقُلْتُ لَأُحَاسِبَنَّ نَفْسِي لَهُ مَا حَاسَبْتُهَا لِأَبِي بَکْرٍ وَلَا لِعُمَرَ وَلَهُمَا کَانَا أَوْلَی بِکُلِّ خَيْرٍ مِنْهُ وَقُلْتُ ابْنُ عَمَّةِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ وَابْنُ أَبِي بَکْرٍ وَابْنُ أَخِي خَدِيجَةَ وَابْنُ أُخْتِ عَائِشَةَ فَإِذَا هُوَ يَتَعَلَّی عَنِّي وَلَا يُرِيدُ ذَلِکَ فَقُلْتُ مَا کُنْتُ أَظُنُّ أَنِّي أَعْرِضُ هَذَا مِنْ نَفْسِي فَيَدَعُهُ وَمَا أُرَاهُ يُرِيدُ خَيْرًا وَإِنْ کَانَ لَا بُدَّ لَأَنْ يَرُبَّنِي بَنُو عَمِّي أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ يَرُبَّنِي غَيْرُهُمْ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 4668
Narrated Abu Musud: When we were ordered to give alms, we began to work as porters (to earn something we could give in charity). Abu Uqail came with one half of a Sa (special measure for food grains) and another person brought more than he did. So the hypocrites said, "Allah is not in need of the alms of this (i.e. 'Uqail); and this other person did not give alms but for showing off." Then Allah revealed:-- 'Those who criticize such of the Believers who give charity voluntarily and those who could not find to give in charity except what is available to them.' (9.79)
