584 صحيح حديث زينب امراة عبد الله قالت: كنت في المسجد، فرايت النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، فقال: تصدقن ولو من حليكن وكانت زينب تنفق على عبد الله، وايتام في حجرها، فقالت لعبد الله، سل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، ايجزي عني ان انفق عليك وعلى ايتامي في حجري من الصدقة فقال: سلي انت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ؛ فانطلقت إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فوجدت امراة من الانصار على الباب، حاجتها مثل حاجتي؛ فمر علينا بلال، فقلنا: سل النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، ايجزي عني ان انفق على زوجي وايتام لي في حجري وقلنا: لا تخبر بنا فدخل فساله، فقال: من هما قال: زينب قال: اي الزيانب قال: امراة عبد الله، قال: نعم لها اجران، اجر القرابة واجر الصدقة
Lady Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud, narrated that I was in the Prophet’s Mosque when I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) saying:“Give charity, even if it is from your jewelry.”Lady Zainab used to spend her charity on her husband, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him), and on some orphans who were under her care. Therefore, she said to her husband:“Ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) whether the charity I spend on you and on those orphans under my care will suffice for me (as charity)?”But Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“You go yourself and ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).”So, in the end, I myself went to the service of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time, I found an Ansari woman at your door who had come with a need similar to mine (she was Zainab, the wife of Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud Ansari, may Allah be pleased with him). Then Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by us, so we said to him:“Ask the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about this issue: will the charity I spend on my husband and the orphans under my care suffice for me (as charity)?”We also said to Bilal:“Do not mention our names.”He went inside and presented the matter to the Prophet, saying:“Two women are asking about an issue.”The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said:“Who are these two?”Sayyiduna Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“One of them is named Zainab.”The Prophet said:“Which Zainab?”Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) said:“The wife of Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him).”The Prophet said:“Yes, indeed, it is correct, and she will have a double reward: one for maintaining kinship and the other for giving charity.”
