Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 36, Hadith 49
Anas narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said: “O Allah! Cause me to live needy, and cause me to die needy and gather me in the group of the needy on the Day of Resurrection.” ‘Aishah said: “Why O Messenger of Allah?” He said: “Indeed they enter Paradise before their rich by forty autumns. O ‘Aishah! Do not turn away the needy even if with a piece of date. O ‘Aishah! Love the needy and be near them, for indeed Allah will make you near on the Day of Judgement.”
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى بْنُ وَاصِلٍ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْعَابِدُ الْكُوفِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ اللَّيْثِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ” اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مِسْكِينًا وَأَمِتْنِي مِسْكِينًا وَاحْشُرْنِي فِي زُمْرَةِ الْمَسَاكِينِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ” . فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِمَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ” إِنَّهُمْ يَدْخُلُونَ الْجَنَّةَ قَبْلَ أَغْنِيَائِهِمْ بِأَرْبَعِينَ خَرِيفًا يَا عَائِشَةُ لاَ تَرُدِّي الْمِسْكِينَ وَلَوْ بِشِقِّ تَمْرَةٍ يَا عَائِشَةُ أَحِبِّي الْمَسَاكِينَ وَقَرِّبِيهِمْ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يُقَرِّبُكِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ” . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ .
