Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، - هُوَ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ - قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا دَاوُدُ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، قَالَ قَالَ جَرِيرٌ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِذَا أَتَاكُمُ الْمُصَدِّقُ فَلْيَصْدُرْ وَهُوَ عَنْكُمْ رَاضٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Ziyad ibn Ayyub reported: Ismail—he is Ibn Ulayyah—informed us: Dawud informed us, from al-Shabi, who said: Jarir said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: When the zakah collector comes to you, let him depart while pleased with you.

Translation notes
  • The source identifies the zakah collector with the term al-musaddiq.
