حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْكِنْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَامِرٍ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنْ حُبْشِيِّ بْنِ جُنَادَةَ السَّلُولِيِّ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي حَجَّةِ الْوَدَاعِ وَهُوَ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ أَتَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَأَخَذَ بِطَرَفِ رِدَائِهِ فَسَأَلَهُ إِيَّاهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ وَذَهَبَ فَعِنْدَ ذَلِكَ حَرُمَتِ الْمَسْأَلَةُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " إِنَّ الْمَسْأَلَةَ لاَ تَحِلُّ لِغَنِيٍّ وَلاَ لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ إِلاَّ لِذِي فَقْرٍ مُدْقِعٍ أَوْ غُرْمٍ مُفْظِعٍ وَمَنْ سَأَلَ النَّاسَ لِيُثْرِيَ بِهِ مَالَهُ كَانَ خُمُوشًا فِي وَجْهِهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَرَضْفًا يَأْكُلُهُ مِنْ جَهَنَّمَ فَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُقِلَّ وَمَنْ شَاءَ فَلْيُكْثِرْ " .

Ali ibn Said al-Kindi told us: Abd al-Rahim ibn Sulayman told us, from Mujalid, from Amir al-Shabi, from Hubshi ibn Junadah al-Saluli, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, during the Farewell Pilgrimage, while he was standing at Arafat. A Bedouin came, took hold of the edge of his cloak, and asked him for it. He gave it to him, and the man went away. At that point, asking became forbidden. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ‘Asking is not lawful for a wealthy person or for someone strong and physically sound, except for someone in crushing poverty or burdened by an overwhelming debt. Whoever asks people in order to increase his wealth will have scratches on his face on the Day of Resurrection and will eat hot coals from Hell. So whoever wishes may ask little, and whoever wishes may ask much.’
