English Translation
Musa narrated to us, Ibn Lahi'ah narrated to us, from Abu al-Zubayr, from Jabir (رضي الله عنه) who said: I heard the Prophet ﷺ say: 'The best charity is that given from sufficiency. Start with those you are responsible for. The upper hand [that gives] is better than the lower hand [that receives].'
