قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) تَصَدَّقُوا وَ لَوْ بِصَاعٍ مِنْ تَمْرٍ وَ لَوْ بِبَعْضِ صَاعٍ وَ لَوْ بِقَبْضَةٍ وَ لَوْ بِبَعْضِ قَبْضَةٍ وَ لَوْ بِتَمْرَةٍ وَ لَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ فَمَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ فَبِكَلِمَةٍ لَيِّنَةٍ فَإِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَاقٍ اللَّهَ فَقَائِلٌ لَهُ أَ لَمْ أَفْعَلْ بِكَ أَ لَمْ أَجْعَلْكَ سَمِيعاً بَصِيراً أَ لَمْ أَجْعَلْ لَكَ مَالًا وَ وَلَداً فَيَقُولُ بَلَى فَيَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى فَانْظُرْ مَا قَدَّمْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ قَالَ فَيَنْظُرُ قُدَّامَهُ وَ خَلْفَهُ وَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَ عَنْ شِمَالِهِ فَلَا يَجِدُ شَيْئاً يَقِي بِهِ وَجْهَهُ مِنَ النَّارِ .


Translation

Someone else from our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from someone else, from Abu Jameela, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Give charity and even if it is with a <span class="iTxt">Sa’a</span> (a unit of measurement) of dates, and even if it is with part of a <span class="iTxt">Sa’a</span>, and even if it is with a handful, and even if it is part of a handful, and even if it is with one date, and even if it is with a part of a date. So the one who cannot find (even that), so with soft words. So when one of you meet Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, it would be Said to him: “Did I<sup>azwj</sup> not Do (such and such) with you? Did I<sup>azwj</sup> not Make for you hearing, sight? Did I<sup>azwj</sup> not Make wealth and children to be for you?” So he would be saying, ‘Yes’. So Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Blessed and High would be Saying: “So look what you have sent for yourself”. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So he would look in front of him, and behind him, and on his right, and on his left, so he would not find anything with which he could save his face from the Fire’.
