Hadith text
Narrated Abu Huraira:While we were sitting with the Prophet (ﷺ) a man came and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! I have been ruined." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) asked what was the matter with him. He replied "I had sexual intercourse with my wife while I was fasting." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) asked him, "Can you afford to manumit a slave?" He replied in the negative. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) asked him, "Can you fast for two successive months?" He replied in the negative. The Prophet (ﷺ) asked him, "Can you afford to feed sixty poor persons?" He replied in the negative. The Prophet (ﷺ) kept silent and while we were in that state, a big basket full of dates was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) . He asked, "Where is the questioner?" He replied, "I (am here)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said (to him), "Take this (basket of dates) and give it in charity." The man said, "Should I give it to a person poorer than I? By Allah; there is no family between its (i.e. Medina's) two mountains who are poorer than I." The Prophet (ﷺ) smiled till his premolar teeth became visible and then said, 'Feed your family with it
Abu Huraira (رضی اللہ عنہ) bataate hain: Jabke hum Nabi ke saath baithe the, ek shaks aaya aur kaha: "Ya Allah ke Rasool! Main barbaad ho gaya hoon." Allah ke Rasool ne pucha kya baat hai. Usne jawab diya: "Maine apni biwi se humbistari ki jabke main roze se tha." Allah ke Rasool ne pucha: "Kya tum ek gulaam azaad kar sakte ho?" Usne na mein jawab diya. Allah ke Rasool ne pucha: "Kya tum lagataar do maheene roza rakh sakte ho?" Usne na mein jawab diya. Nabi ne pucha: "Kya tum saath zaroorat-mand logon ko khana khila sakte ho?" Usne na mein jawab diya. Nabi khamosh rahe, aur jabke hum isi haalat mein the, Nabi ke paas khajooron se bhari ek badi tokari laayi gayi. Aap ne pucha: "Sawaal karne wala kahan hai?" Usne jawab diya: "Main (yahan hoon)." Nabi ne (usse) kaha: "Ise le lo aur sadqa mein de do." Shaks ne kaha: "Kya main isse mujhse zyada gareeb kisi ko dun? Allah ki qasam! Iske (yaani Madina ke) do pahaaadon ke beech mujhse zyada gareeb koi pariwara nahi." Nabi muskuraaye yahan tak ke unke daant zaahir ho gaye aur kaha: "Isse apne pariwara ko khilao."
