EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith encourages us to be generous and kind to others. It is important for us to give generously without expecting anything in return. We should also be kind and understanding towards those around us, even if they are not related or close to us. Being generous and kind will bring blessings into our lives as well as the lives of those around us. We should strive to make sure that we are always giving more than we take from others in order for everyone involved to benefit from the exchange.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that generosity is a sign of faithfulness and kindness is a sign of nobility; both qualities are essential for living a good life according to Islamic teachings. He also said that when you give something away with an open heart, Allah will reward you with something better in return - this could be material or spiritual rewards such as peace of mind or inner contentment. Therefore it is important for Muslims to practice generosity and kindness on a daily basis in order for them reap these rewards from Allah SWT .
