The money I spend
-
1 The money I spend in charity will benefit me when no money will benefit me; that is when it will be my heirs money
Ibn Mas'ud ( May Allah be pleased with him ) reported: The Messenger of Allah ( May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) asked,
"Who of you loves the wealth of his heir more than his own wealth?" The Companions said: "O Messenger of Allah! There is none of us but loves his own wealth more." He ( May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said, "His wealth is that which he has sent forward, but that which he retains belongs to his heir."
[ Al-Bukhari ].
Abu Maisarah narrated from 'Aishah that they had slaughtered a sheep, so the Prophet ( May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him ) said:
"What remains of it?" She said: "Nothing remains of it except its shoulder." He said: "All of it remains except its shoulder."
[ Jami` at-Tirmidhi ]
