The Book of Miscellany
Contentment and Self-esteem and avoidance of unnecessary begging of People
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : مَنْ سأل الناس تَكَثُّرًا فَإِنَّمَا يَسْأَلُ جمراً؛ فليستقل أَو ليستكثر ((رَوَاهُ مُسلم)).
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "He who begs to increase his riches is in fact asking only for a live coal. It is up to him to decrease it or increase it." [Muslim].
