حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبَانَ الْقُرَشِيُّ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ. وَحَدَّثَنَاهُ تَمِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْتَصِرِ قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي مُرَاوِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ، أَخْبَرَهُ
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ: أَيُّ الْأَعْمَالِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ: إِيمَانٌ بِاللهِ وَجِهَادٌ فِي سَبِيلِهِ، قِيلَ: فَأَيُّ الرِّقَابِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ قَالَ: أَغْلَاهَا ثَمَنًا وَأَنْفَسُهَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِهَا قَالَ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَقْدِرْ عَلَى ذَلِكَ قَالَ: تُعِينُ ضَائِعًا أَوْ تَصْنَعُ لِأَخْرَقَ قُلْتُ: أَفَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ ضَعُفْتُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ ؟ قَالَ: " تَدَعُ النَّاسَ مِنَ الشَّرِّ، فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ تَصَدَّقُ بِهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked, “Which deeds are best?” He said, “Faith in Allah and striving in His cause.” It was said, “Which slaves are best to free?” He said, “The most expensive in price and the most precious to their owners.” He said, “If I cannot do that?” He said, “You help a lost person or make something for an unskilled person.” I said, “What if I am too weak for that?” He said, “You refrain from harming people, for it is a charity you give to yourself.”
