I read online: "The Prophet peace be upon him also said: "Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity." - Al-Tirmidhi, Hadith 589
However, when I go to https://sunnah.com/tirmidhi/
I cannot find this hadith anywhere. I searched in multiple apps on google store as well, no luck. Please find the correct reference for me. Thanks.
Closest hadith I can find is this:
إن الصدقة لتطفئ غضب الرب وتدفع ميتة السوء
Indeed charity extinguishes the Lord's anger and it protects against the evil death.
The reference for it is:
جامع الترمذي , كتاب الزكاة, باب ما جاء في فضل الصدقة
Jami` at-Tirmidhi , The Book on Zakat , Chapter: What Has Been Related About The Virtue Of Charity
They may be referring to the less well known Tirmidhi (Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ali Al-Hakim At-Tirmidhi Al-Khurasani Al-Hanafi) or one of the famous Tirmidhi's (Abu Isa Muhammad bin Isa bin Sawrah Ad-Dahak As-Sulami At-Tirmidhi) less well known books as he authored many. At any rate, this Hadith does not occur in the Sunan (Jami) of At-Tirmidhi and it is the burden of the narrator to provide its specific location as the burden of proof is upon the claimant. Try contacting the organization directly for clarity.
