Chapter: Helping the Distressed is Obligatory
Hadith Number: 305
حدثنا الاويسي، قال: حدثنا عبد الرحمن بن ابي الزناد، عن ابيه، عن عروة، عن ابي مراوح، عن ابي ذر: سئل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: اي الاعمال خير؟ قال: ”إيمان بالله، وجهاد في سبيله“، قال: فاي الرقاب افضل؟ قال: ”اغلاها ثمنا، وانفسها عند اهلها“، قال: افرايت إن لم استطع بعض العمل؟ قال: ”تعين ضائعا، او تصنع لاخرق“، قال: افرايت إن ضعفت؟ قال: ”تدع الناس من الشر، فإنها صدقة تصدقها على نفسك.“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) that it was asked from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): Which deeds are the best? He (peace be upon him) said: "To have faith in Allah and to strive in His path." The questioner said: Which slave is best to set free? He (peace be upon him) said: "The one who is the most valuable and the best in the eyes of his owners." The questioner said: If I am not able to do some deeds, then what do you think I should do? He (peace be upon him) said: "You should help someone who is helpless, or do the work of someone who is incapable." The questioner said: If I am unable to do even this? He (peace be upon him) said: "Then refrain from harming people, for this too is a charity that you give to yourself."
