The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When a woman gives in charity from her house meals in Allah's Cause without
spoiling her husband's property, she will get a reward for it, and her husband will also get the reward
for his earnings and the storekeeper will get a reward likewise."

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The example of a miser and an almsgiver is like the example of two persons
wearing iron cloaks." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) also said, "The example of an almsgiver and a miser is like the
example of two persons who have two iron cloaks on them from their breasts to their collar bones, and
when the almsgiver wants to give in charity, the cloak becomes capacious till it covers his whole body
to such an extent that it hides his fingertips and covers his footprints (obliterates his tracks). (1) And
when the miser wants to spend, it (the iron cloak) sticks and every ring gets stuck to its place and he
tries to widen it, but it did not become wide.
