Rewards for Spending and Fighting in the Cause of Allah

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the rewards of spending in the cause of Allah and fighting in the cause of Allah.

It was narrated from 'Ali bin Abu Talib, Abu Darda’, Abu Hurairah, Abu Umamah Al-Bahili, 'Abdullah bin 'Umar, 'Abdullah bin 'Amr, Jabir bin 'Abdullah and 'Imran bin Husain, all of them narrating that the Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever sends financial support in the cause of Allah and stays at home, for every Dirham he will have (the reward of) seven hundred Dirham. Whoever fights himself in the cause of Allah, and spends on that, for every Dirham he will have (the reward of) seven hundred thousand Dirham". Then he recited the Verse: "Allah gives manifold increase to whom He wills".2:261
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْحَمَّالُ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ، عَنِ الْخَلِيلِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، وَأَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ، وَأَبِي، هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو وَجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَعِمْرَانَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ كُلُّهُمْ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ أَرْسَلَ بِنَفَقَةٍ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَأَقَامَ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ دِرْهَمٍ سَبْعُمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ وَمَنْ غَزَا بِنَفْسِهِ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَأَنْفَقَ فِي وَجْهِ ذَلِكَ فَلَهُ بِكُلِّ دِرْهَمٍ سَبْعُمِائَةِ أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ تَلاَ هَذِهِ الآيَةَ ‏{وَاللَّهُ يُضَاعِفُ لِمَنْ يَشَاءُ}‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about how one can gain rewards from Allah by spending money or fighting in His cause. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said that whoever sends financial support in the cause of Allah and stays at home will have a reward equivalent to seven hundred Dirhams for every Dirham spent. Similarly, whoever fights himself in the cause of Allah will have a reward equivalent to seven hundred thousand Dirhams for every Dirham spent. This is further emphasized by reciting verse 2:261 which states that “Allah gives manifold increase to whom He wills”. This hadith teaches us that we should strive to do good deeds as much as possible because it will be rewarded manifoldly by God Almighty Himself. We should also remember that our actions are not done solely for worldly gains but rather they are done with an intention to please God Almighty so we can receive His blessings both here on earth and hereafter on Judgement Day.
