حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا خَلِيفَةُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ غَالِبٍ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ: الْإِيمَانُ بِاللهِ وَالْجِهَادُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، قَالَ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: تُعِينُ ضَائِعًا، أَوْ تَصْنَعُ لِأَخْرَقَ، قَالَ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: احْبِسْ نَفْسَكَ عَنِ الشَّرِّ، فَإِنَّهُ صَدَقَةٌ تَصَّدَّقُ بِهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ.

✧ A man came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which deeds are best?' He said: 'Faith in Allah and jihad in the cause of Allah.' He said: 'What if I cannot do that?' He said: 'Help a lost person, or work for an unskilled person.' He said: 'What if I cannot do that?' He said: 'Restrain yourself from evil, for it is charity that you give to yourself.'
