Hadith 7273

حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِي أَسْمَاءَ عَنْ ثَوْبَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ أَفْضَلُ دِينَارٍ دِينَارٌ يُنْفِقُهُ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى عِيَالِهِ وَدِينَارٌ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو قِلَابَةَ مِنْ قِبَلِهِ بِرًّا بِالْعِيَالِ قَالَ وَأَيُّ رَجُلٍ أَعْظَمُ أَجْرًا مِنْ رَجُلٍ يُنْفِقُ عَلَى عِيَالِهِ صِغَارًا يُعَفِّهِمُ اللَّهُ بِهِ
Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The most virtuous dinar is that which a man spends on his family, and that dinar which a man spends on his animal in the path of Allah. Abu Qilabah, clarifying from his side, said: Just as he spends while doing good to his family, and Abu Qilabah also said: Who can have a greater reward than the man who spends on his small children, and Allah Almighty, through this, saves those children from having to ask (beg).
