Mishkat al-Masabih #1764
Zakat
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ أَصَابَتْهُ فَاقَةٌ فَأَنْزَلَهَا بِالنَّاسِ لَمْ تُسَدَّ فَاقَتُهُ. وَمَنْ أَنْزَلَهَا بِاللَّه أوشك الله لَهُ بالغنى إِمَّا بِمَوْتٍ عَاجِلٍ أَوْ غِنًى آجِلٍ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالتِّرْمِذِيّ
Ibn Mas'ud reported God’s messenger as saying,
“If one who is afflicted by poverty refers it to men, his poverty will not be brought to an end; but if one refers it to God, He will soon give him sufficiency, either by a speedy death or by a sufficiency which comes later.”
Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi transmitted it.
