Abu Haraira reported that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) gave similitudes of a miserly man and the giver of charity as two persons who have two coats-of-mail over them with their hands pressed closely to their breasts and their collar bones. Whenever the giver of charity gives charity it (the coat-of mail) expands so much as to cover his finger tips and obliterate his foot prints. And whenever the miserly person intends to give charity (the coat-of-mail) contracts and every ring grips the place where it is. He (Abu Huraira) said: I saw the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) saying with fingers in the opening of his shirt: If you had seen him trying to expand it, it will not expand.
حَدَّثَنِي سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ الْغَيْلَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَامِرٍ يَعْنِي الْعَقَدِيَّ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ عَنْ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَثَلَ الْبَخِيلِ وَالْمُتَصَدِّقِ كَمَثَلِ رَجُلَيْنِ عَلَيْهِمَا جُنَّتَانِ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ قَدْ اضْطُرَّتْ أَيْدِيهِمَا إِلَى ثُدِيِّهِمَا وَتَرَاقِيهِمَا فَجَعَلَ الْمُتَصَدِّقُ كُلَّمَا تَصَدَّقَ بِصَدَقَةٍ انْبَسَطَتْ عَنْهُ حَتَّى تُغَشِّيَ أَنَامِلَهُ وَتَعْفُوَ أَثَرَهُ وَجَعَلَ الْبَخِيلُ كُلَّمَا هَمَّ بِصَدَقَةٍ قَلَصَتْ وَأَخَذَتْ كُلُّ حَلْقَةٍ مَكَانَهَا قَالَ فَأَنَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ بِإِصْبَعِهِ فِي جَيْبِهِ فَلَوْ رَأَيْتَهُ يُوَسِّعُهَا وَلَا تَوَسَّعُ
  ابراہیم بن نافع نے حسن بن مسلم سے ، انھوں نے طاوس سے اور انھوں نے حضرت ابو ہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کی ، انھوں نے کہا : رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے مثال بیان فرمائی : " بخیل اور صدقہ کرنے والے کی مثال ایسے دو آدمیوں کی مانند ہے جن ( کے جسموں ) پر لوہے کی دو زرہیں ہیں ، ان کے دونوں ہاتھ انکی چھاتیوں اورہنسلی کی ہڈیوں سے جکڑے ہوئے ہیں ، پس صدقہ دینے والا جب صدقہ دینے لگتا ہےتووہ ( اس کی زرہ ) پھیل جاتی ہے حتیٰ کہ اس کی انگلیوں کے پوروں کو ڈھانپ لیتی ہے اور ( زمین پر گھسیٹنے کی وجہ سے ) اس کے نقش قدم کو مٹانے لگتی ہے ۔ اور بخیل جب صدقہ دینے کا ارادہ کرنے لگتا ہے تو وہ سکڑ جاتی ہے اور ہر حلقہ اپنی جگہ کو پکڑ لیتا ہے ۔ " ( ابو ہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ نے ) کہا : میں نے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو دیکھا آپ اپنی گریبان میں ڈال رہے تھے ، کاش تم آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو دیکھتے ( ایسے لگتا تھا کہ ) آپ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اسے کشادہ کرنا چاہتے ہیں لیکن وہ کشادہ نہیں ہوتی ۔

sahih-muslim-2361

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: . The similitude of a miserly man and the giver of charity is that of two persons with coats of mail over them; when the giver of charity intends to give charity, it expands over him (to much so) that the footprints are also obliterated. And when the miserly man intends to give charity, it contracts over him, and his hands are tied up to his collar bone, and every ring is fixed up to another. He (the narrator) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: He would try to expand it. but he would not be able to do so.

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Apostle ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: A man expressed his intention to give charity, so he came out with charity and placed it in the hand of an adulteress. In the morning, the people were talking and saying: charity was given to an adulteress last night. He (the giver of Sadaqa) said: 0 Allah, to Thee be the praise-to an adulteress. He then again expressed his intention to give charity; so he went out with the charity and placed it in the hand of a rich person. In the morning the people were talking and saying: Charity was given to a rich person. He (the giver of charity) said: 0 Allah, to Thee be the praise-to a well-to-do person. He then expressed his intention to give charity, so he went out with charity and placed it in the hand of a thief. In the morning, the people were talking and saying: Charity was given to a thief. So (one of the persons) said: 0 Allah, to Thee be the praise (what a misfortune it is that charity has been given to) the adulteress, to a rich person. to a thief! There came (the angel to him) and he was told: Your charity has been accepted. As for the adulteress (the charity might become the means) whereby she might restrain herself from fornication. The rich man might perhaps learn a lesson and spend from what Allah has given him, and the thief might thereby refrain from committing theft.
