Hazrat Yazid bin Bishr al-Saksaki narrates that Yazid bin Abdul Malik gave me a cloth and sent me towards the Ka'bah. When I reached the place of Tayma, a beggar came and said, "Give charity, for indeed charity saves a person from seventy doors of evil." I asked (the people), "Who is the greatest jurist here?" They replied, "There is a man among the Jews named Nusayy." I went to his house and called out, "Is Nusayy here?" A woman looked out and gave me permission to enter. When he saw me, he performed ablution. I asked him, "When you saw me, you performed ablution; what is the reason for this?" He said, "Allah Almighty said to Musa, 'O Musa! Perform ablution, for if you do not, many calamities will befall you, and then blame no one but yourself.'" I said, "A beggar, while asking, was saying, 'Give charity, for indeed charity saves a person from seventy doors of evil.'" He said, "He spoke the truth." Then he mentioned death, the falling of a wall, the perishing of an animal, drowning, and many other things that Allah Almighty wills to count among deaths. I submitted, "And charity saves from the fire of Hell."
