The Prophet’s request for charity from the Companions and whether it is considered asking

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the Companions for charity and encouraged them to give it. Is this considered asking them, just as we do?

Answer:
What is commanded of them as good is not considered asking them. This is commanding them to do good, because he asked for charity for the needy, so this is a command to do good? Yes.
