لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ بِهَذَا الطَّوَّافِ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، فَتَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ، وَالتَّمْرَةُ وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ. قَالُوا: فَمَنِ الْمِسْكِينُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ؟ قَالَ: الَّذِي لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ، وَلَا يُفْطَنُ لَهُ فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ، وَلَا يَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ شَيْئًا - لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الْمُغِيرَةِ - وَفِي رِوَايَةِ مَالِكٍ: وَلَا يَقُومُ فَيَسْأَلُ النَّاسَ

"The needy person (miskīn) is not this one who goes around among the people, who is turned away with a morsel or two morsels, a date or two dates." They said: "Then who is the needy person, O Messenger of Allah?" He said: "The one who does not find enough to make him self-sufficient, and is not noticed so that charity might be given to him, and does not ask the people for anything." - This is the wording of the hadith of al-Mughīrah - and in the narration of Mālik: "and does not stand up and ask the people."
