It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There will be scratches on the face of the one who begs on the Day of Resurrection, so whoever wishes, let him save his face. The lightest form of asking is to ask a close relative due to some need, and the best asking is that which is done with contentment of the heart. And you should begin giving to those whom you are responsible for."
