Prophet Muhammad (saw) said: “By Him in Whose Hand is my life, it is better for one of you to take a rope and cut wood (from the wilderness) and carry it on his back and sell it (as means of earning his living) than to go to a person whom Allah has granted from His bounty and beg from him (something) which that person may or may not give him.” (Bukhari). Another narration says: “And Allah will save his face (from the hellfire) because of that.” (Bukhari).

The Prophet (saw) said: “The upper hand is better than the lower hand. One should start giving first to his dependents, and the best object of charity is what is given by a wealthy person. Whoever seeks chastity (by not begging), Allah will keep him chaste, and whoever seeks independence, Allah will grant him independence.” (Bukhari and Muslim).

Allah (swt) said in the Holy Qur’an: “Glorified be He who carried His servant by night from Al-Masjid al-Haram (the inviolable place of worship) to Al-Masjid al-Aqsa (the far distance place of worship), the neighbourhood whereof We have blessed, that We might show him or our token. Lo! He is the Hearer, and the Seer.” (Al-Isra’: 1)
