It is also reported from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in the Sunan collections (4) that he said: “An alms collector who performs his duty faithfully is like one who strives in the cause of Allah.”

Its wording is: “The inhabitants of Paradise are three: a ruler who is just, charitable, and guided to what is right; a man who is merciful and tenderhearted toward every relative and every Muslim; and a man who, despite having dependants, remains self-restrained and refrains from asking others.” (3) The word “tenderhearted” is absent from manuscript *zāy*.

ورجلٌ دعته امرأةٌ ذاتُ منصبٍ وجمال (١) فقال: إني أخافُ اللهَ ربَّ العالمين، ورجلٌ تصدق بصدقة فأخفاها حتى لا تعلمَ شمالُه ما تنفق يمينُه». وفي «صحيح مسلم» (٢) عن عِياض بن حِمار ﵁ قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ: «أهل الجنة ثلاثة: ذو سلطان مُقْسِط، ورجلٌ رحيم رقيق (٣) القلب بكل ذي قُرْبى ومسلم، ورجل غني عفيف متصدق». وفي «السنن» (٤) عنه ﷺ أنه قال: «الساعي على الصدقة بالحق كالمجاهد في سبيل الله». وقد قال ﷾ ــ لما أمر بالجهاد ــ: ﴿وَقَاتِلُوهُمْ حَتَّى لَا تَكُونَ فِتْنَةٌ وَيَكُونَ الدِّينُ كُلُّهُ لِلَّهِ﴾ [الأنفال: ٣٩]. وقيل للنبي ﷺ: يا رسول الله، الرجلُ يقاتل شجاعةً، ويقاتل حمية، ويقاتل رياء، فأيُّ ذلك في سبيل الله؟ فقال: «مَن قاتل لتكون كلمة الله هي
