Sahih al-Bukhari 3618 (Book 61, Hadith 125) #3457
Spending Money in Allah's Cause

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the importance of spending money in Allah's cause and that no one will remain powerful forever.

Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger said, "When Khosrau perishes, there will be no (more) Khosrau after him, and when Caesar perishes, there will be no more Caesar after him. By Him in Whose Hands Muhammad's life is, you will spend the treasures of both of them in Allah's Cause".
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ إِذَا هَلَكَ كِسْرَى فَلاَ كِسْرَى بَعْدَهُ، وَإِذَا هَلَكَ قَيْصَرُ فَلاَ قَيْصَرَ بَعْدَهُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَتُنْفِقُنَّ كُنُوزَهُمَا فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ

This hadith, narrated by Abu Huraira, speaks about the importance of spending money in Allah’s cause. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ mentions two powerful rulers, Khosrau and Caesar, who will eventually perish. He then states that their treasures should be spent in Allah’s cause instead of being wasted away. This hadith teaches us to use our resources wisely and to spend them for a good purpose such as helping those who are less fortunate or donating to charity. It also reminds us that no one is invincible or immortal; all power comes from God and it can be taken away at any time.
