4837 - وَ رَوَى سَمَاعَةُ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: "جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى اَلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ ظَاهَرْتُ مِنِ اِمْرَأَتِي فَقَالَ "اِذْهَبْ فَأَعْتِقْ رَقَبَةً" فَقَالَ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي فَقَالَ "اِذْهَبْ فَصُمْ "شَهْرَيْنِ مُتَتٰابِعَيْنِ" " فَقَالَ لاَ أَقْوَى فَقَالَ "اِذْهَبْ فَأَطْعِمْ "سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً" " قَالَ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ "أَنَا أَتَصَدَّقُ عَنْكَ" " قَالَ "فَأَعْطَاهُ تَمْراً لِإِطْعَامِ سِتِّينَ مِسْكِيناً فَقَالَ "اِذْهَبْ فَتَصَدَّقْ بِهِ" فَقَالَ وَ اَلَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ نَبِيّاً مَا أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ بَيْنَ لاَبَتَيْهَا أَحَداً أَحْوَجَ إِلَيْهِ مِنِّي وَ مِنْ عِيَالِي فَقَالَ "اِذْهَبْ فَكُلْ وَ أَطْعِمْ عِيَالَكَ" ".
Hadith.4837 - Sama'ah narrated from Abu Basir, who said:
I heard Abu Abdullah say: "A man came to the Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah (swt), I have performed ẓihar (declared my wife as unlawful to me).'
The Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) said: 'Go and free a slave.'
The man replied: 'I do not have one.'
The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Then go and fast for two consecutive months.'
The man replied: 'I am not able to do so.'
The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Then go and feed sixty poor people.'
The man replied: 'I do not have the means.'
The Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) then said: 'I will give charity on your behalf.'"
He (peace be upon him and his family) gave him dates to feed sixty poor people and said:
"Go and give this in charity."
The man said: "By the One who sent you with the truth as a Prophet ﷺ, I do not know anyone between these two mountains (of Madinah) who is more in need of this than me and my family."
The Prophet (peace be upon him and his family) said: "Then go and feed your family with it."
