Sahih Muslim, 5360

Abu Huraira reported that a guest spent the night with a person from the Ansar who had nothing with him but food (sufficient) for his own self and his children. He said to his wife:(Lull) the children to sleep, and put out the lamp, and serve the guest with what you have with you. It was on this occasion that this verse was revealed:" Those who prefer the needy to their own selves in spite of the fact that they are themselves in pressing need" (Lix)

Rapporté par Abu Huraira : Un invité a passé la nuit chez un homme parmi les Ansar, qui n’avait de nourriture que pour lui-même et ses enfants. Il a dit à sa femme : « Endors les enfants, éteins la lampe et sers l’invité avec ce que tu as. » C’est à cette occasion que ce verset a été révélé : « Ils donnent la préférence aux autres, même s’ils sont eux-mêmes dans le besoin. » (Sourate 59, verset)
