Shaykh Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb al-Kulaynī · Giving Charity to Those Whom One Does Not Know
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ سَدِيرٍ الصَّيْرَفِيِّ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أُطْعِمُ سَائِلاً لا أَعْرِفُهُ مُسْلِماً فَقَالَ نَعَمْ أَعْطِ مَنْ لا تَعْرِفُهُ بِوَلايَةٍ وَلا عَدَاوَةٍ لِلْحَقِّ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَقُولُ وَقُولُوا لِلنَّاسِ حُسْناً وَلا تُطْعِمْ مَنْ نَصَبَ لِشَيْءٍ مِنَ الْحَقِّ أَوْ دَعَا إِلَى شَيْءٍ مِنَ الْبَاطِلِ.
1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from Sadir al-Sayrafiy who has said the following: “I once said to abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), ‘I know someone is asking for help, but I do not know if he is a Muslim or not.’ The Imam said, ‘You can give charity to one whom you do not know is a friend or enemy of the truth. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, has said, “Say good words to people.” (2:83) Do not give charity to those who are hostile to the truth or call people to something of falsehood.’”
