Sunan Ibn Majah 1808

سنن ابن ماجه#1808Hasan

حَدَّثَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ حَمَّادٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ ‏ "‏ الْمُعْتَدِي فِي الصَّدَقَةِ كَمَانِعِهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Anas bin Malik narrated that:the Messenger of Allah said: “The one who is unjust in Sadaqah is like the one who withholds it.”

Scholarly Authentication

The label above is the grade most of these scholars gave, each scholar counted once — one dissenting opinion no longer speaks for all of them. If any scholar calls a narration fabricated, that verdict is shown instead, whatever the others say. When they judged only its chain of narrators (“Isnaad”), the label says “Sound chain”. Each scholar's own wording:

Al-AlbaniHasan
Shuaib Al ArnautHasan
Zubair Ali ZaiDaif

Our source also lists this ruling under Muhammad Fouad Abd al-Baqi, the editor of the printed edition it was taken from. It is al-Albani's ruling printed again, so it is counted once.
