Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزَّاهِرِيَّةِ، عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: " إِنَّمَا أَنَا مُبَلِّغٌ وَاللهُ يَهْدِي، وَقَاسِمٌ وَاللهُ يُعْطِي، فَمَنْ بَلَغَهُ مِنِّي شَيْءٌ بِحُسْنِ رَغْبَةٍ وَحُسْنِ هُدًى، فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ (١) الَّذِي يُبَارَكُ لَهُ فِيهِ، وَمَنْ بَلَغَهُ منِّي (٢) شَيْءٌ بِسُوءِ رَغْبَةٍ وَسُوءِ هُدًى، فَذَاكَ (٣) الَّذِي يَأْكُلُ وَلَا يَشْبَعُ " (٤)، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (ﷺ) said: I am only a treasurer, the real giver is Allah. Therefore, if I give something to someone with a happy heart, it will be made blessed for him. And if I give something to someone to protect myself from his evil or because of his insistence in asking, he is like the person who keeps eating but is never satisfied.
