Mishkat al-Masabih #1786
Zakat
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «شَرُّ مَا فِي الرَّجُلِ شُحٌّ هَالِعٌ وَجُبْنٌ خَالِعٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ
Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying,
“The worst things in a man are anxious niggardliness and unrestrained cowardice.”
Abd Dawud transmitted it.
