حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزَّعْرَاءِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ مَالِكِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
الْأَيْدِي ثَلَاثَةٌ، فَيَدُ اللهِ الْعُلْيَا، وَيَدُ الْمُعْطِي الَّتِي تَلِيهَا، وَيَدُ السَّائِلِ السُّفْلَى، فَأَعْطِ الْفَضْلَ، وَلَا تَعْجِزْ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ

✧ The hands are three: the Hand of Allah is the highest, the hand of the giver is next to it, and the hand of the beggar is the lowest. So give from what is surplus, and do not be helpless with regard to yourself.
