Show the chain

حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ وَيَحْيَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ قَالَا: نَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، نَا الْأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

إِنَّ أَفْضَلَ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا أَبْقَتْ غِنًى، وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى، تَقُولُ امْرَأَتُكَ: أَنْفِقْ عَلَيَّ أَوْ طَلِّقْنِي، وَيَقُولُ مَمْلُوكُكَ: أَنْفِقْ عَلَيَّ أَوْ بِعْنِي، وَيَقُولُ وَلَدُكَ: إِلَى مَنْ تَكِلُنِي
