[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to encourage giving charity. A man would come forward and contribute, and he would bring a handful (of charity), while for some of them the amount would reach one hundred thousand on that day." His brother said, "I witnessed that he would expose himself."

«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُ بِالصَّدَقَةِ فَيَنْطَلِقُ الرَّجُلُ فَيَتَحَامَلُ فَيَجِيءُ بِالْمُدِّ وَإِنَّ لِبَعْضِهِمُ الْيَوْمَ لَمِائَةَ أَلْفٍ» قَالَ شَقِيقُ فَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّهُ يُعَرِّضُ بِنَفْسِهِ
