Original Arabic

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " لَيْسَ الْمِسْكِينُ هَذَا الطَّوَافَ الَّذِي يَطُوفُ عَلَى النَّاسِ، تَرُدُّهُ اللُّقْمَةُ وَاللُّقْمَتَانِ، وَالتَّمْرَةُ، ، وَالتَّمْرَتَانِ، إِنَّمَا الْمِسْكِينُ الَّذِي لَا يَجِدُ غِنًى يُغْنِيهِ، وَيَسْتَحِي (١) أَنْ يَسْأَلَ النَّاسَ، وَلَا يُفْطَنُ لَهُ، فَيُتَصَدَّقَ عَلَيْهِ " (٢)،

English translation

And the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said: The needy is not the one who is turned away with one or two dates or one or two morsels; rather, the real needy is the one who does not possess enough to suffice himself, and he is ashamed to ask from people, and others do not know of his needs so that they might spend on him.
