‘Ata’ b. Yasar reported in mursal form that God’s messenger said, ''Sadaqa may not be given to a rich man, with the exception of five classes: one who fights in God’s path, or one who collects it, or a debtor, a man who buys it with his money, or a man who has a poor neighbour a no has been given sadaqa and gives a present to the rich man.” Malik and Abu Dawud transmitted it. A version by Abu Dawud from Abu Sa'id has ‘‘or a traveller.”

وَعَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ مُرْسَلًا قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: " لَا تَحِلُّ الصَّدَقَةُ لِغَنِيٍّ إِلَّا لِخَمْسَةٍ: لِغَازٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَوْ لِعَامِلٍ عَلَيْهَا أَوْ لِغَارِمٍ أَوْ لِرَجُلٍ اشْتَرَاهَا بِمَالِهِ أَوْ لِرَجُلٍ كَانَ لَهُ جَارٌ مِسْكِينٌ فَتَصَدَّقَ عَلَى الْمِسْكِينِ فَأَهْدَى الْمِسْكِين للغني ". رَوَاهُ مَالك وَأَبُو دَاوُد وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ لِأَبِي دَاوُدَ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ: «أوابن السَّبِيل»
