حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ قَالَ: نَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ: نَا الْعَوَّامُ بْنُ جُوَيْرِيَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ ؓ قَالَ:
قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ: مَا تَقُولُ فِي الصَّلَاةِ ؟ قَالَ: تَمَامُ الْعَمَلِ قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَسْأَلُكَ عَنِ الصَّدَقَةِ قَالَ: " الصَّدَقَةُ شَيْءٌ عَجَبٌ " قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، تَرَكْتُ أَفْضَلَ عَمَلٍ فِي نَفْسِي أَوْ خَيْرَهُ قَالَ: مَا هُوَ ؟ قُلْتُ: الصَّوْمُ قَالَ: " خَيْرٌ وَلَيْسَ هُنَاكَ " قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَأَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ ؟ وَذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً، قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ أَوْ أَقْدِرْ قَالَ: " بِفَضْلِ طَعَامِكَ "، قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ قَالَ: " بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ " قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ قَالَ: " فَبِكَلِمَةٍ طَيِّبَةٍ " قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ، قَالَ: " دَعِ النَّاسَ مِنَ الشَّرِّ، فَإِنَّهَا صَدَقَةٌ تَتَصَدَّقُ بِهَا عَلَى نَفْسِكَ " قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ قَالَ: " فَأَمِطِ الْأَذَى " قُلْتُ: فَإِنْ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ قَالَ: " تُرِيدُ أَنْ لَا تَدَعَ فِيكَ مِنَ الْخَيْرِ شَيْئًا

✧ I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what do you say about prayer?' He said: 'It is the completion of deeds.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I ask you about charity.' He said: 'Charity is something amazing.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have left the best deed in my soul or its good.' He said: 'What is it?' I said: 'Fasting.' He said: 'It is good, but there is nothing beyond it.' I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, which charity is best?' And he mentioned a word. I said: 'What if I cannot do it or am unable?' He said: 'With surplus food.' I said: 'What if I cannot do it?' He said: 'With half a date.' I said: 'What if I cannot do it?' He said: 'Then with a good word.' I said: 'What if I cannot do it?' He said: 'Refrain from harming people, for it is a charity you give to yourself.' I said: 'What if I cannot do it?' He said: 'Then remove harm.' I said: 'What if I cannot do it?' He said: 'You want to leave no good in you at all.'
