Home Hadith Hadith 1376
I heard the Prophet (p.b.u.h) saying, "(O people!) Give in charity (for Allah's cause) because a time
will come when a person will carry his object of charity from place to place (and he will not find any
person to take it) and any person whom he shall request to take it, I will reply, 'If you had brought it
yesterday I would have taken it, but today I am not in need of it."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 24, Hadith 28

The Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "Seven people will be shaded by Allah under His shade on the day when
there will be no shade except His. They are:
(1) a just ruler;
(2) a young man who has been brought up in the worship of Allah, (i.e. worship Allah (Alone)
sincerely from his childhood),
(3) a man whose heart is attached to the mosque (who offers the five compulsory congregational
prayers in the mosque);
(4) two persons who love each other only for Allah's sake and they meet and part in Allah's cause
only;
(5) a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for an illegal sexual intercourse
with her and says: I am afraid of Allah;
(6) a person who practices charity so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has
given (i.e. nobody knows how much he has given in charity).
(7) a person who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes get flooded with tears."

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "When a woman gives in charity some of the foodstuff (which she has in her
house) without spoiling it, she will receive the reward for what she has spent, and her husband will
receive the reward because of his earning, and the storekeeper will also have a reward similar to it.
The reward of one will not decrease the reward of the others . "
