The questioner : The apparent meaning of the hadith includes even beggars?
The Shaykh : How?
The questioner : That you spend for the one who seeks wealth and the one who does not seek it.
The Shaykh : No, we have qualified it several times in our speech. We said, "in his right," because some beggars show signs of lying. So here, it may be better not to give to him, because you are encouraging him, encouraging him in his forbidden begging. And here there is also a difference between the general begging of beggars and specific begging. So if someone asks you specifically, targeting you, then here, if you give to him, you are in the right. So give to him and advise him, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not turn away a beggar, and because this is part of chivalry: if someone asks you personally, you give to him and do not turn him away, as long as you are able. But with that, advise him. Advise him if you see that his condition is contrary to what appears.
All right, I have, I have, is the wealth of his heir with you in the nominative case like this, or in the accusative case?
The reader: In the nominative case.
The Shaykh : In the nominative case. All right, two grammatical positions are permissible in it from the perspective of grammar, because if you complete the name and predicate of "inna," then two positions are permissible for the conjoined word. You say, "Inna Zaydan qaimun wa 'Amran," and you say, "Inna Zaydan qaimun wa 'Amrun."
