أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي السَّرِيِّ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
«مَثَلُ الْبَخِيلِ وَالْمُتَصَدِّقِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا جُبَّتَانِ أَوْ جَنَّتَانِ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ مِنْ لَدُنْ ثُدِيِّهِمَا إِلَى تَرَاقِيهِمَا فَأَمَّا الْمُنْفِقُ فَكُلَّمَا تَصَدَّقَ وَحَدَّثَ نَفْسَهُ ذَهَبَتْ عَنْ جِلْدِهِ حَتَّى تَعْفُوَ أَثَرَهُ وَتَجُوزَ بَنَانَهُ وَالْبَخِيلُ كُلَّمَا أَنْفَقَ شَيْئًا وَحَدَّثَ بِهِ نَفْسَهُ لَزِمَتْهُ وَعَضَّتْ كُلُّ حَلْقَةٍ مِنْهَا مَكَانَهَا فَهُوَ يُوَسِّعُهَا وَلَا تَتَّسِعُ»

✧ The likeness of the miser and the giver of charity is like two men upon whom are two coats of iron, or two gardens, from their nipples to their collarbones. As for the spender, every time he gives charity and intends it, it departs from his skin until it erases his trace and surpasses his fingertips. As for the miser, every time he spends something and intends it, it sticks to him and each ring of it bites into its place, and he tries to widen it but it does not widen.
