لِلْفُقَرَاءِ الَّذِينَ أُحْصِرُوا فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ ضَرْبًا فِي الْأَرْضِ يَحْسَبُهُمُ الْجَاهِلُ أَغْنِيَاءَ مِنَ التَّعَفُّفِ تَعْرِفُهُمْ بِسِيمَاهُمْ لَا يَسْأَلُونَ النَّاسَ إِلْحَافًا وَمَا تُنْفِقُوا مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ بِهِ عَلِيمٌ https://twitter.com/itsirxmr/status/1241841065163927552
[Charity is] for the poor who have been restricted for the cause of Allah, unable to move about in the land. An ignorant [person] would think them self-sufficient because of their restraint, but you will know them by their [characteristic] sign...
...They do not ask people persistently [or at all]. And whatever you spend of good - indeed, Allah is Knowing of it. [2:273]
The tweet reminded me of this verse. Ik it's not directly related, but the jist is the same - Those who don't know would think that these people are okay because they refrain from begging and seeking help from people, but only Allah knows what their true condition is
