Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " جَاهِدُوا بِأَيْدِيكُمْ وَأَلْسِنَتِكُمْ وَأَمْوَالِكُمْ " .
Translation
Amr ibn Ali reported to us; he said: Abd al-Rahman narrated to us; he said: Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Humayd, from Anas, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Strive with your hands, your tongues, and your wealth.
Translation notes
The verb conveys striving or exertion in Allah’s cause; the narration names hands, tongues, and wealth as means.
