Hadith.3671 - It was said to Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as): "People narrate from the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) that he said: 'Charity is not permissible for a wealthy person nor for one who is strong and able-bodied.'" Imam (as) replied: "He (sw) indeed said it is not permissible for a wealthy person, but he (sw) did not say for one who is strong and able-bodied."
3671 - وَ - قِيلَ لِلصَّادِقِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ إِنَّ اَلنَّاسَ يَرْوُونَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ "إِنَّ اَلصَّدَقَةَ لاَ تَحِلُّ لِغَنِيٍّ وَ لاَ لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ" فَقَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "قَدْ قَالَ لِغَنِيٍّ وَ لَمْ يَقُلْ لِذِي مِرَّةٍ سَوِيٍّ".
