  الله عليه وسلم قال لا تحل الصدقة لغني إلا بخمسة الحديث فقال حدث به عبد الرزاق عن معمر والثوري عن زيد بن أسلم عن عطاء بن يسار عن أبي سعيد قاله ابن عسكر عنه وقال غيره عن عبد الرزاق عن معمر وحده وهو أصح وروى هذا الحديث عبد الرحمن بن مهدي عن الثوري عن زيد بن أسلم قال حدثني الثبت عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ولم يسم رجلا وهو الصحيح حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن أبي شيبة ثنا محمد بن سهل بن عسكر ثنا عبد الرزاق أبنا سفيان الثوري ومعمر جميعا عن زيد بن أسلم عن عطاء بن يسار عن أبي سعيد الخدري قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم لا تحل الصدقة لغني إلا بخمسة العامل عليها أو غازي في سبيل الله أو رجل اشتراها بماله أو مسكين تصدق بها عليه فأهدى منها لغني حدثنا علي بن عبد الله بن مبشر قال ثنا أحمد بن سنان ثنا عبد الرحمن بن مهدي عن سفيان عن زيد بن أسلم قال حدثني الثبت أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال لا تحل الصدقة لغني إلا بخمسة ثم ذكر نحو حديث عبد الرزاق

  machine translationﷺ said: "Charity is not lawful for a rich person except in five cases..." the hadith. He said: ʿAbd al-Razzāq narrated it from Maʿmar and al-Thawrī, from Zayd b. Aslam, from ʿAṭāʾ b. Yasār, from Abū Saʿīd. Ibn ʿAskar said this from him, while others said: from ʿAbd al-Razzāq, from Maʿmar alone, and that is more sound (aṣaḥḥ). ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī narrated this hadith from al-Thawrī, from Zayd b. Aslam, who said: "The reliable one (al-thabt) narrated to me from the Prophet ﷺ," and he did not name a man, and that is the correct (ṣaḥīḥ) version. Aḥmad b. Muḥammad b. Abī Shaybah narrated to us: Muḥammad b. Sahl b. ʿAskar narrated to us: ʿAbd al-Razzāq narrated to us: Sufyān al-Thawrī and Maʿmar informed us together, from Zayd b. Aslam, from ʿAṭāʾ b. Yasār, from Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Charity is not lawful for a rich person except in five cases: the one who works to collect it, or a warrior in the cause of Allah, or a man who bought it with his own money, or a poor person to whom it was given in charity and who then gave some of it as a gift to a rich person." ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh b. Mubashshir narrated to us, he said: Aḥmad b. Sinān narrated to us: ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī narrated to us, from Sufyān, from Zayd b. Aslam, who said: "The reliable one (al-thabt) narrated to me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Charity is not lawful for a rich person except in five cases,'" then he mentioned something like the hadith of ʿAbd al-Razzāq.
