For spending in the way of Allah, it is a condition that the intention be sincere for Allah, that the wealth be lawful, that the spending does not aid in sin, and that the spender be a Muslim. Among the etiquettes of spending are moderation in it, and that charity be given while one is healthy, not at the time of death, and that the spender begin with his closest relatives. The Quran has clarified the virtue of spending and that it should not be followed by boasting or harm.
