Zubair bin `Awwam (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"It is far
better for you to take your rope, go to the mountain, (cut some firewood) carry it on your back, and sell it and
thereby save your face than begging from people whether they give you or refuse.''
[Al-Bukhari].
Commentary:
As compared to beggary, this Hadith puts emphasis on hard work. However, people may look down
upon manual labour or hard work, yet it is certainly far better than seeking charity servilely, because doing a job like
this will certainly save a man's self-respect, whereas begging puts him in an awkward position. To put it in this way,
Islam stands for a man's deliverance from indignity and teaches him to keep his sense of dignity.
