Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «إِن هَذِهِ الصَّدَقَاتِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَوْسَاخُ النَّاسِ وَإِنَّهَا لَا تَحِلُّ لِمُحَمَّدٍ وَلَا لِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Translation

Abd al-Muttalib ibn Rabiʿa said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, ‘These alms are only the impurities of people, and they are not lawful for Muhammad or the family of Muhammad.’ Muslim transmitted it.

Translation notes

  • The English witness explains the ‘impurities’ as atonement for sins; this explanatory gloss is absent from the Arabic source.
