Hadith 3596
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((أَتَدْرُونَ أَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَفْضَلُ؟)) قَالُوا: اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: ((الْمَنِيحَةُ، أَنْ يَمْنَحَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ الدِّرْهَمَ أَوْ ظَهْرَ الدَّابَّةِ أَوْ لَبَنَ الشَّاةِ أَوْ لَبَنَ الْبَقَرَةِ))
Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him): The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do you know which charity is the most virtuous? The Companions said: Allah and His Messenger know best. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: To lend something to someone, for example, if one of you gives his Muslim brother a dirham, or a riding animal, or the milk of a goat, or the milk of a cow.
Hadith 3597
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ الْمَنِيحَةُ تَغْدُو بِأَجْرٍ وَتَرُوحُ بِأَجْرٍ، مَنِيحَةُ النَّاقَةِ كَعَتَاقَةِ الْأَحْمَرِ، وَمَنِيحَةُ الشَّاةِ كَعَتَاقَةِ الْأَسْوَدِ))
Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Lending something to someone is the best charity; that thing becomes a cause of reward in the morning and in the evening. Lending a she-camel to someone is equal to freeing a red slave, and lending a goat to someone is like freeing a black slave.
Hadith 3598
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو (بْنِ الْعَاصِ) رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((أَرْبَعُونَ حَسَنَةً، أَعْلَاهُنَّ مَنِيحَةُ الْعَنَزِ، لَا يَعْمَلُ الْعَبْدُ بِحَسَنَةٍ مِنْهَا رَجَاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وَتَصْدِيقَ مَوْعُودِهَا إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا الْجَنَّةَ))
Narrated by Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There are forty good deeds, the greatest of which is to lend a milch goat to someone. Whoever performs any one of these forty good deeds, hoping for reward and affirming the promised thing, Allah Almighty will admit him into Paradise.
