حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ التَّيْمِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الزَّعْرَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي الْأَحْوَصِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ مَالِكِ بْنِ نَضْلَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ الْأَيْدِي ثَلَاثَةٌ:‏‏‏‏ فَيَدُ اللَّهِ الْعُلْيَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَدُ الْمُعْطِي الَّتِي تَلِيهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَدُ السَّائِلِ السُّفْلَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَعْطِ الْفَضْلَ وَلَا تَعْجِزْ عَنْ نَفْسِكَ .

The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: Hands are of three types: Allah's hand is the upper one; the bestower's hand is the one near it; the beggar's hand is the lower one. So bestow what is surplus, and do not submit yourself to the demand of your soul.
