It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: The best charity is that which leaves you with some wealth (do not spend all your wealth). Your wife says, "Feed me or divorce me." The servant says, "Feed me or sell me to someone else." The children say, "In whose care are you leaving us?" People asked, "O Abu Huraira! Are these last sentences also from the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), or are they from your own pouch?" He replied, "No! Rather, they are from my own pouch."
