Sunan ad-Darimi — Hadith #54535

Musaddad and Abu Nu’aym narrated to us, saying: Hammad bin Zayd narrated to us, on the authority of Harun bin Riyab, Kinana bin Nu’aym narrated to me, on the authority of Qubaisah. Ibn Mukhariq Al-Hilali said: I was carried with a burden, so I came to the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, to ask him about it. He said: “Stay, O Qubaysah.” Until the charity comes to us, so we order it for you.” Then he said: “O Qubaisa, the matter is not permissible except for one of three people: a man who carried a burden. So the matter was solved for him, so he asked until he solved it, then he kept it. And a man was struck by a pandemic that destroyed his wealth, so the matter was solved for him. So he asked until he got enough of his livelihood, or he said: enough of his livelihood. And a man was afflicted with calamity, such that three of his people said: So-and-so has been afflicted with calamity, so the matter was resolved for him, so he asked until... He gains sustenance, or a full subsistence, then he is held back, and what “Anything other than them is permissible, oh Qabisa, its owner eats it permissibly.”
