It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) once asked the companions (may Allah be pleased with them): "Do you know which charity is the most virtuous?" The companions (may Allah be pleased with them) replied: Allah and His Messenger know best. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is the gift that one of you presents to his brother, whether it is money, the back of an animal (for riding), goat's milk, or cow's milk."
