51. Companionship of Women
٥١۔ كِتَابُ عِشْرَةِ النِّسَاءِ
“The best Dinar that a man can spend is a Dinar that he spends on his family, a Dinar that he spends on a horse in the cause of Allah, and a Dinar that a man spends on his companions in the cause of Allah.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2760)
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «أَفْضَلُ دِينَارٍ دِينَارٌ يُنْفِقُهُ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى عِيَالِهِ وَدِينَارٌ يُنْفِقُهُ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى دَابَّتِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَدِينَارٌ يُنْفِقُهُ عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ» قَالَ أَبُو قِلَابَةَ «بَدَأَ بِالْعِيَالِ»
[Machine] Narrated by the Prophet ﷺ, he said, "A dinar spent in the cause of Allah, a dinar spent on the poor, a dinar spent on your family, a dinar spent on freeing slaves, and a dinar spent on charity to those forgotten by people - the best of these is the dinar spent on your family."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «دِينَارٌ أَنْفِقْتَهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ وَدِينَارٌ فِي الْمَسَاكِينِ وَدِينَارٌ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ وَدِينَارٌ فِي الرِّقَابِ وَدِينَارٌ فِي نَسِيَهُ يَحْيَى أَفْضَلُهَا دِينَارًا دِينَارٌ أَنْفَقْتَهُ عَلَى أَهْلِكَ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Everything you do for your family is considered charity for them, even a brief one."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «كُلُّ مَا صَنَعْتَ إِلَى أَهْلِكَ فَهُوَ صَدَقَةٌ عَلَيْهِمْ مُخْتَصَرٌ»
[Machine] It was reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Whatever you feed yourself, it is charity for you. Whatever you feed your children, it is charity for you. Whatever you feed your wife, it is charity for you. Whatever you feed your servant, it is charity for you."
أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «مَا أَطْعَمْتَ نَفْسَكَ فَهُوَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَمَا أَطْعَمْتَ وَلَدَكَ فَهُوَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَمَا أَطْعَمْتَ زَوْجَتَكَ فَهُوَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ وَمَا أَطْعَمْتَ خَادِمَكَ فَهُوَ لَكَ صَدَقَةٌ»
