Our Salaf: Mercy to the poor and needy–Shu’bah Ibnul Hajjaaj

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Nadr bin Shameel (rahimahullaah) said:

I have not seen one with more mercy to the needy than Shu’bah (rahimahullaah); When he would see a needy person, he would not stop looking at him until he disappeared from his presence. [Hilyatul Awliyaa 7/146]

Yahyah Al-Qattaan (rahimahullaah) said:

Shu’bah (rahimahullaah) used to be from the most soft-hearted amongst the people. He used to give beggars whatever he could. [Siyar A’laam Nubulaa: 7/211]
