Sayyiduna Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The asking of the wealthy will be a blemish on his face on the Day of Resurrection.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna ‘A’id bin ‘Amr Muzani (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Once we were sitting with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a Bedouin came and, insisting and persistently, began to ask the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), saying: O Messenger of Allah! Feed me, O Messenger of Allah! Give me something. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stood up and went into the house, then he (peace and blessings be upon him) held the two sides of the doorframe and, turning towards us, said: By Him in whose hand is the life of Muhammad! If you knew what I know about the consequences of asking and begging, then whoever has food for one evening would not ask anything from anyone. After that, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered food to be given to him.

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever asks people (begs) to increase his wealth, in fact he is collecting embers of fire; now it is up to him whether he collects a little or a lot.
