English Translation

Bahz narrated to us, Hammad ibn Salamah narrated to us, from Ishaq ibn Abdullah — meaning Ibn Abi Talhah — from Sa'id ibn Yasar, from Abu Hurayrah (رضي الله عنه), that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Whoever gives charity equal to a date from lawful earnings — and Allah accepts only what is lawful — Allah will accept it with His right hand and nurture it for its owner as one of you nurtures his young horse, until it becomes like a mountain.'
