Sahih Muslim 1042

Sahih Muslim · Book 12: The Book of Zakat · It is disliked to beg from people

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ ، وَيُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو، بْنُ الْحَارِثِ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ، مَوْلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لأَنْ يَحْتَزِمَ أَحَدُكُمْ حُزْمَةً مِنْ حَطَبٍ فَيَحْمِلَهَا عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ فَيَبِيعَهَا خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَسْأَلَ رَجُلاً يُعْطِيهِ أَوْ يَمْنَعُهُ ‏" ‏ ‏.‏

It is better for any one of you to tie a bundle of firewood and carry it on his back and sell it than to beg a person, he may give or may refuse.
