Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said:
"Charity is a necessity for every Muslim."
He was asked: "What if a person has nothing?" "Charity is a necessity for every Muslim."
The Prophet replied: "He should work with his own hands for his benefit and then give something out of such earnings in charity."
The Companions of the Prophet asked: "What if he is not able to work?"
The Prophet said: "He should help the poor and needy."
The Companions further asked: "What if he cannot do even that?"
The Prophet said: "He should urge others to do good."
The Companions said: "What if he lacks that also?"
The Prophet said: "He should check himself from doing evil. That is also an act of charity."
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, said:
"Your body has 360 joints and each of them requires an act of charity every day." And, "Even meeting your brother with a cheerful face is an act of charity."
Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, taught his followers:
"He is not a believer who goes to sleep at night with a full stomach while his neighbor's remains empty
