Sahih al-Bukhari 1449 (Book 24, Hadith 52) #1391
Giving in Charity

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) advised and ordered women to give in charity, and they responded by giving their ornaments.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: I am a witness that Allah's Messenger offered the Id prayer before delivering the sermon and then he thought that the women would not be able to hear him (because of the distance), so he went to them along with Bilal who was spreading his garment. The Prophet advised and ordered them to give in charity. So the women started giving their ornaments (in charity). (The sub-narrator Aiyub pointed towards his ears and neck meaning that they gave ornaments from those places such as earrings and necklaces)
حَدَّثَنَا مُؤَمَّلٌ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ، قَالَ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَشْهَدُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ لَصَلَّى قَبْلَ الْخُطْبَةِ، فَرَأَى أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُسْمِعِ النِّسَاءَ، فَأَتَاهُنَّ وَمَعَهُ بِلاَلٌ نَاشِرَ ثَوْبِهِ فَوَعَظَهُنَّ، وَأَمَرَهُنَّ أَنْ يَتَصَدَّقْنَ، فَجَعَلَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تُلْقِي، وَأَشَارَ أَيُّوبُ إِلَى أُذُنِهِ وَإِلَى حَلْقِهِ‏.‏

Give generously from what you have out of love for Allah

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's advice to women to give in charity. He went to them with Bilal, who was spreading his garment, and asked them to donate their ornaments such as earrings and necklaces. This shows us that giving in charity is an important part of our faith as Muslims. It teaches us that we should be generous with our wealth and possessions, even if it is something small like a piece of jewelry. We should also remember that Allah will reward us for our generosity when we give from what we have out of love for Him.
