[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever spends a pair or says two from his wealth, I see it being called for him by the treasures of Paradise, O Muslim, this is good, come forward to it." Abu Bakr said, "This man does not reach him." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whatever money benefitted me, except for the money of Abu Bakr." Abu Bakr cried and said, "Did Allah benefit me except through you? Did Allah benefit me except through you? Did Allah benefit me except through you?"
