جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ، فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: إِيمَانٌ بِاللهِ وَجِهَادٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ. فَقَالَ: أَيُّ الْعَتَاقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟ قَالَ: " أَنْفَسُهَا. قَالَ: أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَجِدْ؟ قَالَ: " فَتُعِينُ الصَّانِعَ أَوْ تَصْنَعُ لِأَخْرَقَ. قَالَ: أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ لَمْ أَسْتَطِعْ؟ قَالَ: " فَدَعِ النَّاسَ مِنْ شَرِّكَ؛ فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ تَصَدَّقُ بِهَا عَنْ نَفْسِكَ
