Abu Dawud said: And Ibn ʿUyaynah narrated it from Zayd as Malik said. And al-Thawri narrated it from Zayd, who said: The reliable one narrated to me from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him.

1637 — Muhammad ibn ʿAwf al-Ta'i narrated to us, al-Firyabi narrated to us, Sufyan narrated to us, from ʿImran al-Bariqi, from ʿAtiyyah, from Abu Sa'id, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Charity is not permissible for the wealthy, except in the cause of Allah, or for the wayfarer, or for a poor neighbor to whom charity is given, and he then gives you a gift or invites you."(1)

It was also recorded by ʿAbd al-Razzaq in "al-Musannaf" (7152) from al-Thawri, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from ʿAta' ibn Yasar, from a man among the companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, with it. This is a difference in identifying the companion, and such a difference does not harm the authenticity of the hadith. Moreover, the anonymity of the companion does not harm either, because all of them are trustworthy. Nevertheless, on one occasion he explicitly mentioned Abu Sa'id, as we have clarified in the preceding chain.

It is also in "Musnad Ahmad" (11538).

(1) Its chain is weak, due to the weakness of ʿAtiyyah — who is Ibn Sa'd ibn Junadah — and the unknown status of ʿImran al-Bariqi. Al-Firyabi: he is Muhammad ibn Yusuf al-Dabbi, and Sufyan: he is Ibn Sa'id al-Thawri. It was also recorded by Ibn Khuzaymah (2368), al-Tahawi in "Sharh Ma'ani al-Athar" 2/19, and al-Bayhaqi 7/22 from the path of Sufyan al-Thawri, with this chain.

It was also recorded by Abu Dawud al-Tayalisi in his "Musnad" (2194) in abbreviated form, Abu Ya'la al-Mawsili in his "Musnad" (1333), and al-Bayhaqi in "al-Sunan al-Kubra" 7/22 from the path of Firas ibn Yahya al-Hamdani Abu Yahya al-Muktab, and Ibn Abi Shaybah 3/210, and ʿAbd ibn Humayd in "al-Muntakhab" (895), and Abu Ya'la in his "Musnad" (1202), and al-Tahawi in "Sharh Ma'ani al-Athar" 2/19, and al-Bayhaqi 7/23 from the path of Muhammad ibn ʿAbd al-Rahman ibn Abi Layla, both of them from ʿAtiyyah al-ʿAwfi, with it.

It is in "Musnad Ahmad" (11268).

And the correct version is what preceded it.
