أخبرني عِمْرَانُ بْنُ بَكَّارٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ وَهُوَ ابْنُ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزِّنَادِ مِمَّا حَدَّثَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ الْأَعْرَجُ مِمَّا ذَكَرَ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يُحَدِّثُ بِهِ

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لَأَتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا فِي يَدِ سَارِقٍ فَأَصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى سَارِقٍ فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى سَارِقٍ لَأَتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا فِي يَدِ زَانِيَةٍ فَأَصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ تُصُدِّقَ اللَّيْلَةَ عَلَى زَانِيَةٍ فَقَالَ اللهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى زَانِيَةٍ لَأَتَصَدَّقَنَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ فَخَرَجَ بِصَدَقَتِهِ فَوَضَعَهَا فِي يَدِ غَنِيٍّ فَأَصْبَحُوا يَتَحَدَّثُونَ تُصُدِّقَ عَلَى غَنِيٍّ قَالَ اللهُمَّ لَكَ الْحَمْدُ عَلَى زَانِيَةٍ وَعَلَى سَارِقٍ وَعَلَى غَنِيٍّ فَأُتِيَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ أَمَّا صَدَقَتُكَ فَقَدْ تُقُبِّلَتْ أَمَّا الزَّانِيَةُ فَلَعَلَّهَا تَسْتَعِفَّ بِهِ عَنْ زِنَاهَا وَلَعَلَّ السَّارِقَ يَسْتَعِفَّ بِهِ عَنْ سَرِقَتِهِ وَلَعَلَّ الْغَنِيَّ أَنْ يَعْتَبِرَ فَيُنْفِقَ مِمَّا أَعْطَاهُ اللهُ

✧ From the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he said: A man said, “I will certainly give charity.” He went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of a thief. In the morning, people were talking: “Charity was given to a thief.” He said, “O Allah, to You be praise—to a thief. I will certainly give charity.” He went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of an adulteress. In the morning, people were talking: “Charity was given tonight to an adulteress.” He said, “O Allah, to You be praise—to an adulteress. I will certainly give charity.” He went out with his charity and placed it in the hand of a rich man. In the morning, people were talking: “Charity was given to a rich man.” He said, “O Allah, to You be praise—to an adulteress, to a thief, and to a rich man.” Then he was told: “As for your charity, it has been accepted. As for the adulteress, perhaps she will thereby abstain from her adultery. Perhaps the thief will thereby abstain from his theft. Perhaps the rich man will take heed and spend from what Allah has given him.”
