Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) and said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have one dinar (what should I do with it)?" The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Spend it on yourself." He said, "I have another one." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Spend it on your children!" He said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have another one." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Spend it on your wife." He said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have another one." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Spend it on your servant!" He said, "O Messenger of Allah! I have more." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "You know best (on whom to spend it)." The narrator named Sa'id says: When Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) would narrate this hadith, he used to say: Your child will say, 'Spend on me, to whom are you handing me over?' Your wife will say, 'Spend on me, otherwise divorce me.' Your servant will say, 'Spend on me or sell me.'
