Week Seventeen: Spending On Your Family

Narrated Abu Mas`ud Al-Ansari:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When a Muslim spends something on his family intending to receive Allah's reward it is regarded as Sadaqa for him."

It's always so beautiful to spend on our family members, like buying gifts or taking them out to eat. Everyone is always grateful and happy. In this hadith, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) is telling us that when we spend on our family members with the intention of being rewarded by Allah (SWT), it will be regarded as a Sadaqa for you. SubhanAllah. Isn't that beautiful?
