Muwatta Malik #1802
The Description of the Prophet, may Allah Bless Him and Grant Him Peace
Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z-Zinad from al-Araj from
Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, said, "The very poor are not the people who constantly walk
from person to person and are given one or two morsels, and one or two
dates." They said, "Who are the very poor, Messenger of Allah?" He
said, "People who do not find enough for themselves and other people
are not aware of them to give sadaqa to them, and they do not start
begging from other people."
