أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ الْمُؤْمِنُ لِلْمُؤْمِنِ كَالْبُنْيَانِ يَشُدُّ بَعْضُهُ بَعْضًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ الْخَازِنُ الأَمِينُ الَّذِي يُعْطِي مَا أُمِرَ بِهِ طَيِّبًا بِهَا نَفْسُهُ أَحَدُ الْمُتَصَدِّقَيْنِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

Abd Allah ibn al-Haytham ibn Uthman informed me: Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us, from Burayd ibn Abi Burdah, from his grandfather, from Abu Musa, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: A believer to another believer is like a structure, each part strengthening the other. He also said: The trustworthy treasurer who gives what he has been instructed to give, willingly and with a good heart, is one of the two who give in charity.

Translation notes

  • The source presents two sayings. The second calls both the owner and the entrusted distributor participants in charity.
