Sunan Abi Dawud 1670 (Book 9, Hadith 115) #21962
Providing Food to Poor People

SUMMARY: Providing food to a poor person is an act that will be rewarded by Allah on the Day of Resurrection.

‘Abd al-Rahman bin Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) said The Messenger of Allah asked Is there anyone of you who provided food to a poor man today? Abu Bakr said I entered the mosque where a beggar was begging; I found a piece of bread in the hand of ‘Abdal-Rahman which I took and gave it to him.
حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ آدَمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ بَكْرٍ السَّهْمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ الْبُنَانِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ هَلْ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ أَطْعَمَ الْيَوْمَ مِسْكِينًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنه - دَخَلْتُ الْمَسْجِدَ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِسَائِلٍ يَسْأَلُ فَوَجَدْتُ كِسْرَةَ خُبْزٍ فِي يَدِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ فَأَخَذْتُهَا مِنْهُ فَدَفَعْتُهَا إِلَيْهِ
