Arabic hadith text
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُعْتَدِي فِي الصَّدَقَةِ كَمَانِعِهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ
Translation

Anas reported God’s messenger as saying, “He who collects more sadaqa than is due is like him who refuses to pay it.” *Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi transmitted it.* Meaning that the sin committed by both is similar in its seriousness.
