Sunan Ibn Majah 4126 (Book 37, Hadith 27) #33482
Loving the Poor

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught us to love the poor and to pray for a life of poverty.

It was narrated that Abu Sa’eed Al-Khudri said: "Love the poor, for I heard the Messenger of Allah say in his supplication: 'O Allah, cause me to live poor and cause me to die poor, and gather me among the poor (on the Day of Resurrection).’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَالِدٍ الأَحْمَرُ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ سِنَانٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ، قَالَ أَحِبُّوا الْمَسَاكِينَ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ ـ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ ‏ "‏ اللَّهُمَّ أَحْيِنِي مِسْكِينًا وَأَمِتْنِي مِسْكِينًا وَاحْشُرْنِي فِي زُمْرَةِ الْمَسَاكِينِ
