The Rewards of Charity and Forgiveness

SUMMARY: Giving charity does not reduce wealth, and those who forgive and serve others for the pleasure of Allah will be rewarded.

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah said, "Wealth does not diminish by giving Sadaqah (charity). Allah augments the honour of one who forgives; and one who serves another seeking the pleasure of Allah, Allah will exalt him in ranks". Muslim.
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله قال‏:‏ “ما نقصت صدقة من مال، و ما زادالله عبداً بعفو إلا عزاً، وما تواضع أحد لله إلا رفعه الله” ‏(‏‏(‏رواه مسلم‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith from Prophet Muhammad ﷺ teaches us that giving charity does not reduce our wealth. Instead it is a way to increase our blessings from Allah. It also teaches us that those who forgive others and serve them for the pleasure of Allah will be rewarded in many ways. We can see this in how people are respected when they show kindness to others or help them out without expecting anything in return. By doing these things we can gain honor and respect from both Allah and other people around us.
