Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! I have one dinar, what should I do with it? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Spend it on yourself. He said: I have another one, what should I do with it? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Spend it on your wife. He asked: I have another one, what should I do with it? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Spend it on your children. He said: I have another one, what should I do with it? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Spend it on your servant. He said: I have another one, what should I do with it? The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: You know best.
