Hadith 119
Hadith.1714 - The Messenger of Allah (swt), peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "The one who pays the obligatory zakat from his wealth and gives generously among his people is not truly stingy. True stinginess belongs to the person who neither pays the obligatory zakat nor gives generously among his people, while squandering wealth on matters other than that."
1714 - وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ : «لَيْسَ اَلْبَخِيلُ مَنْ أَدَّى اَلزَّكَاةَ اَلْمَفْرُوضَةَ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَ أَعْطَى اَلْبَائِنَةَ فِي قَوْمِهِ إِنَّمَا اَلْبَخِيلُ حَقَّ اَلْبَخِيلِ مَنْ لَمْ يُؤَدِّ اَلزَّكَاةَ اَلْمَفْرُوضَةَ مِنْ مَالِهِ وَ لَمْ يُعْطِ اَلْبَائِنَةَ فِي قَوْمِهِ وَ هُوَ يُبَذِّرُ فِيمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ».
