Tap any word to see its meaning.
Also on the authority of Abū Dharr, may Allah be pleased with him, that some of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to the Prophet ﷺ: O Messenger of Allah, the wealthy have taken away the rewards: they pray as we pray, fast as we fast, and give charity from their surplus wealth. He said: Has Allah not given you something with which to give charity? Every glorification is charity, every magnification is charity, every praise is charity, every declaration of His oneness is charity, enjoining good is charity, forbidding evil is charity, and in the marital relations of each of you there is charity. They said: O Messenger of Allah, does one of us satisfy his desire and receive a reward for it? He said: Do you see, if he were to satisfy it unlawfully, would there not be a burden of sin upon him? Likewise, when he satisfies it lawfully, there is a reward for him.
