The Importance of Giving Charity

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of giving charity and not holding onto wealth.

Asma bint Abi Bakr said: " O the Messenger of Allah! I have nothing except what was given to me by (my husband) Az-Zubair, shall I give it (in charity)?'" It was said: "Do not hold (your wealth) so that Allah will hold against you".
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْخَطَّابِ، زِيَادُ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْبَصْرِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا حَاتِمُ بْنُ وَرْدَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ لِي مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِلاَّ مَا أَدْخَلَ عَلَىَّ الزُّبَيْرُ أَفَأُعْطِي قَالَ ‏ "‏ نَعَمْ وَلاَ تُوكِي فَيُوكَى عَلَيْكِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَقُولُ لاَ تُحْصِي فَيُحْصَى عَلَيْكِ ‏.‏ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَرَوَى بَعْضُهُمْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ رضى الله عنهما وَرَوَى غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ هَذَا عَنْ أَيُّوبَ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرُوا فِيهِ عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks to the importance of giving charity and not holding onto one's wealth. It was narrated by Asma bint Abi Bakr, who asked the Prophet Muhammad if she should give away what she had been given by her husband in charity. The Prophet replied that she should not hold onto her wealth, as Allah would then hold it against her. This teaches us that we should be generous with our wealth and give to those in need, as this will bring us closer to Allah and benefit us in both this world and the hereafter. We must remember that all our possessions are a blessing from Allah, so we must use them wisely for His pleasure.
