How can a person manage their salary, save from it, and give charity to their relatives?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Your expenditure on your wife and daughter is among the best forms of charity. Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: «A dinar you spend in the way of Allah, a dinar you spend in freeing a slave, a dinar you give in charity to a poor person, and a dinar you spend on your family—the greatest in reward is the one you spend on your family.» Your expenditure should be moderate, neither extravagant nor stingy, as Allah Almighty says: «And those who, when they spend, do not spend extravagantly nor are stingy, but are between that [justly] moderate.»
