Hadith 35711
Yahya related to me that Malik said, "I heard that a beggar asked
for food from A'isha, umm al-muminin, while she had some grapes. She
told some one to take him one grape. He began to look in amazement.
A'isha said, 'Are you amazed? How many atoms' weights do you see in
this grape?' " (referring to Sura 99 ayat 7).

Yahya related to me from Malik that he heard that a beggar asked
A'isha, the wife of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, for something while she was fasting and there was only a loaf
of bread in her house. She said to her female mawla, "Give it to him."
The mawla protested, "You will not have anything to break your fast
with." A'isha repeated, "Give it to him," so she did so. When evening
came, the people of a house or a man who did not usually give to them,
gave them a sheep and some food to go with it. A'isha, umm al-muminin,
called her mawla and said, "Eat from this. This is better than your
loaf of bread." Muwatta Malik Book 58, Hadith 5

Malik related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab from Ata ibn Yazid
al-Laythi from Abu Said al-Khudri that some people of the Ansar asked
the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and
he gave to them. Then they asked him again, and he gave to them until
he used up what he had. Then he said, "What wealth I have, I will not
hoard from you. Whoever has forbearance, Allah will help him. Whoever
tries to be independent, Allah will enrich him. Whoever tries to be
patient, Allah will give him patience, and no one is given a better or
vaster gift than patience." Muwatta Malik Book 58, Hadith 7
