LIFE : HADITH OF SADAQAH 3


Rasullullah Saw has said, " O son of Adam, it is better for you to give away what you can spare, and to withold it is worse for you; but you will not be blamed if you keep back what may barely suffice you, and spend first on those who are dependent on you".


Abu Saeed Khudri Ra narates that once he was among those who were accompanying Rasullullah Saw on a journey. One of the companions kept moving up and down the caravan with his she camel. At this, Rasullullah Saw said if someone had a spare animal for riding he should give it away to the one who had none, and whoever had extra provision should give these to them who were in need. The Sahabah surmised from this that no one had any right to his provision beyond his actual need. [ Abu Dawood]
