Thauban reported God’s messenger as saying,
"If anyone guarantees me that he will not beg from people, I will guarantee him paradise.”
Thauban said that he would, and he never asked anyone for anything.
Abu Dharr said that God's messenger called him and laid a condition on him that he should not ask people for anything. When he agreed he said,
"Not even for your whip when you drop it. You must dismount and get it yourself.”
'Ali told how, when he heard a man begging from the people on the day of ‘Arafa, he said,
"On this day and in this place do you beg from anyone but God?” He then struck him with a whip.
