It is narrated from Sa'id bin Yasar that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever gives charity from lawful wealth—and Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, accepts only lawful wealth—then He places that charity in the palm of Allah, Glorious and Exalted is He, and the Lord nurtures it, just as one of you raises his foal or the young of a camel, until that charity becomes like a mountain."
