Mishkat al-Masabih 1786

‘Amr b. Shu'aib on his father’s authority said his grandfather reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying, “There is to be no collecting of sadaqa from a distance, nor must people who own property remove it far away,* for their sadaqat are to be received only in their dwellings.” Abu Dawud transmitted it. * The point is that the collector of zakat must not make people bring their animals a long distance to him, and they must not remove their animals to a distance when he is coming to collect zakat.
