جامع ترمذی · Hadith 680

Abu Hurairah narrated that he heard : the Messenger of Allah saying: For one of you to go out early to gather firewood and carry it on his back so that he can give charity from it and be free of need from the people, is better for him than to ask a man who may give that to him or refuse. Indeed the upper hand (giving) is more virtuous than the lower hand (receiving), and begin with (those who are) your dependants.
