• Charity does not diminish wealth, and Allah does not increase a servant, on account of his forgiveness, except in honor, and no one humbles himself seeking the pleasure of Allah except that Allah will elevate him
• If a man spends something on his family, seeking reward from Allah for it, it will be recorded for him as charity
• My heirs should not take a dinar or dirham. Whatever I leave behind, excluding the provision for my wives and my employees, should be spent in charity
• Spend (in charity), and do not keep account, lest Allah keep account of you, and do not hoard, lest Allah hoard from you
