Abu Jurayy Jabir ibn Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: “I came to Madinah and saw a man whose opinion people followed. He did not say anything except that people acted upon it. I asked: ‘Who is this?’ They said: ‘This is the Messenger of Allah.’ I said: ‘Peace be upon you, O Messenger of Allah,’ twice. He said: ‘Do not say: “Peace be upon you,” for that is the greeting of the dead. Say: “Peace be upon you.”’ I said: ‘Are you the Messenger of Allah?’ He said: ‘I am the Messenger of Allah. If harm befalls you and you call upon Him, He will remove it. If a year of drought befalls you and you call upon Him, He will make it grow for you. If you are in a barren land and your mount strays, and you call upon Him, He will return it to you.’ I said: ‘Advise me.’ He said: ‘Do not curse anyone.’ After that, I did not curse any free person, slave, camel, or sheep. He said: ‘Do not belittle any good deed, even if it is speaking to your brother with a cheerful face. That is a good deed. Raise your garment to mid-calf, and if you refuse, then to the ankles. Beware of letting your garment drag, for it is a sign of arrogance, and Allah does not love arrogance. If someone insults you and shames you with what he knows about you, do not shame him with what you know about him, for the burden of that will be on him.’” [Narrated by Abu Dawud, and Tirmidhi narrated the part about the greeting]

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ : نِعْمَ الصَّدَقَةُ اللَّقْحَةُ الصَّفِيُّ مِنْحَةً۱، وَالشَّاةُ الصَّفِيُّ مِنْحَةً، تَغْدُوْ بِإِنَاءٍ وَتَرُوْحُ بِآخَرَ». مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ.

English

Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “The best charity is a milking she-camel given as a gift, and a milking sheep given as a gift, which goes out in the morning with a vessel and returns in the evening with another.” [Agreed upon]

Notes / الحواشي
English notes

1 The statement: “Given as a gift.” In Al-Bada’i: “If one gives a milking sheep, camel, or cow as a gift and says: ‘This sheep is a gift for you,’ or ‘This camel,’ or ‘This cow,’ it is considered a loan, and it is permissible for the recipient to benefit from its milk. Even though milk is a physical substance, it is considered a benefit by custom and practice, so it is treated as a benefit, as if he has permitted him to drink the milk. Thus, it is permissible for him to benefit from its milk.”

الحواشي

۱ قوله: منحة: وقال في البدائع: ولو منحه شاة حلوبًا أو ناقة حلوبًا أو بقرة حلوبا، وقال: هذه الشاة لك منحة، أو هذه الناقة، أو هذه البقرة كان عارية، وجاز له الانتفاع بلبنها؛ لأن اللبن وإن كان عينا حقيقة فهو معدود من المنافع عرفا وعادةً، فأعطى له حكم المنفعة، كأنه أباح له شرب اللبن، فيجوز له الانتفاع بلبنها.

The three hated by Allah are: the old adulterer, the poor show-off, and the oppressive rich man.” [Narrated by Tirmidhi and Nasa’i]

وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ (رضي الله عنه) قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُوْلُ اللهِ ﷺ: «مَنْ وَسَّعَ عَلَى عِيَالِهِ فِي نَفَقَةٍ يَوْمَ عَاشُوْرَاءَ وَسَّعَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ سَائِرَ سَنَتِهِ». قَالَ سُفْيَانُ: إِنَّا قَدْ جَرَّبْنَاهُ فَوَجَدْنَاهُ كَذَلِكَ، رَوَاهُ رَزِينٌ.

وَرَوَى الْبَيْهَقِيُّ فِي شُعَبِ الْإِيْمَانِ عَنْهُ وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبِي سَعِيدٍ وَجَابِرٍ (رضي الله عنهم) وَضَعَّفَهُ. قَالَ الْعِرَاقِيُّ: لَهُ طُرُقُ، صَحِيحُ بَعْضُهَا وَبَعْضُهَا عَلَى شَرْطِ مُسْلِمٍ.

Ibn Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever is generous to his family on the day of Ashura, Allah will be generous to him for the rest of the year.” Sufyan said: “We have tried this and found it to be true.” [Narrated by Razin]

Al-Bayhaqi narrated it in Shu’ab Al-Iman from him, Abu Hurairah, Abu Sa’id, and Jabir, but he weakened it. Al-Iraqi said: “It has chains, some of which are authentic, and some meet the conditions of Muslim.”
