Sayyidina Abu hurayrah (RA) reported that he heard Allah’s Messenger (SAW) say , “One of you who goes out in the morning and returns carrying a wood on his back from which he gives Sadaqah is absolved from begging of men is better than one who begs from others who may or may not give him. For, the upper hand is better than the hand below. And begin to spend on those who are your responisibility”
[ Ahmed10442, Bukhari 2074, Muslim 1042]
