Sayyiduna al-Irbad bin Sariyah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a man gives his wife water to drink, he will be rewarded for that too." The narrator says: I came to my wife, gave her water to drink, and told her what I had heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
Ahmad recorded it, and al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir and al-Mu'jam al-Awsat. Its chain contains Sufyan bin Husayn, whose narrations from al-Zuhri contain weakness, and this narration is one of them. Narrations about spending on one's family, children and others have already passed at the end of the Book of Zakah.
