Show respect for gifts given in charity by being mindful of how you use them and taking only what you need.

This hadith teaches us to be respectful and grateful for what we have been given. It reminds us that charity is a gift from Allah and should not be taken for granted. We should show our appreciation by being mindful of how we use it and not taking more than what we need. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) used a Persian phrase to emphasize this point - “Kakh, kakh!” which translates to “Don’t you know that we do not eat the Sadaqa?” He was reminding Hasan bin Ali that charity is something special and should be treated with respect. This hadith also teaches us about humility; even if someone has been given something in charity they should still remember that it is from Allah and treat it with reverence.
