Sahih al-Bukhari Book 34, Hadith 28
The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "One would rather take a rope and cut wood and carry it than ask others).
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "No doubt, it is better for any one of you to cut a bundle of wood and carry it over his back rather than to ask someone who may or may not give him."
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "May Allah's mercy be on him who is lenient in his buying, selling, and in demanding back his money."
