Hadith 7257

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ دِينَارٌ أَنْفَقْتَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَدِينَارٌ فِي الْمَسَاكِينِ وَدِينَارٌ فِي رَقَبَةٍ وَدِينَارٌ فِي أَهْلِكَ أَعْظَمُهَا أَجْرًا الدِّينَارُ الَّذِي أَنْفَقْتَهُ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: One dinar which you spend in the way of Allah, one dinar which you spend on the needy, one dinar which you spend to free a slave, and one dinar which you spend on your family—of all these, the greatest in reward is the dinar which you spend on your family.
