باب: اتّقُوا النّارَ وَلَو بِشقّ تَمْرَةٍ وَالْقَلِيلِ مِنَ الصّدَقَة

CHAPTER 6. Protect yourself from Hellfire even with a half date, or with a little object of charity.

715. عَنْ عائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: دَخَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مَعَهَا ابْنَتَانِ لَهَا تَسْأَلُ, فَلَمْ تَجِدْ عِنْدِي شَيْئًا غَيْرَ تَمْرَةٍ, فَأَعْطَيْتُهَا إِيّاهَا, فَقَسَمَتْهَا بَيْنَ ابْنَتَيْهَا, وَلَمْ تَأْكُلْ مِنْهَا, ثُمّ قَامَتْ فَخَرَجَتْ, فَدَخَلَ النّبِيّ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَلَيْنَا فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ, فَقَالَ النّبِيّ صلى الله عليه وسلم: (مَنِ ابْتُلِيَ مِنْ هذِهِ الْبَنَاتِ بِشَيْءٍ كُنّ لَهُ سِتْرًا مِنَ النّارِ). رواه البخاري: 1418

715. Narrated A’isha رضى الله عنها : A lady along with her two daughters came to me asking (for some alms), but she found nothing with me except one date which I gave to her and she divided it between her two daughters, and did not eat anything herself, and then she got up and went away. Then the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم came and I informed him about this story. He said, Whoever is put to trial by these daughters and he treats them generously (with benevolence) then these daughters will act as a shield for him from Hellfire. (2:499O.B.)
