( أَخْبَرَنَا ) أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ: الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ بُرْهَانَ الْغَزَّالُ، وَأَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ: عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ بِشْرَانَ الْعَدْلُ، وَأَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ، وَأَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ: عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ بِبَغْدَادَ، قَالُوا: أَنْبَأَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ، ثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ، ثَنَا جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ، عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ:

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ: " لَتُنَبَّأَنَّ أَنْ تَصَدَّقَ وَأَنْتَ صَحِيحٌ شَحِيحٌ تَأْمُلُ الْبَقَاءَ وَتَخَافُ الْفَقْرَ، وَلَا تُمْهِلْ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَتِ الْحُلْقُومَ، قُلْتَ: لِفُلَانٍ كَذَا، وَلِفُلَانٍ كَذَا، أَلَا وَقَدْ كَانَ لِفُلَانٍ.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked: "Which charity is best?" He said: "You will surely be informed: that you give in charity while you are healthy and miserly, hoping to live long and fearing poverty. And do not delay until, when it reaches the throat, you say: 'So-and-so gets such-and-such, and so-and-so gets such-and-such,' when it already belongs to so-and-so.
