It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Charity is obligatory upon every soul for every day on which the sun rises. And among these is that you act justly between two people—that is charity. And if you help a man to mount his riding animal, that too is charity. If you remove something harmful from the road, that too is charity. Among these is also that you help a man to mount his riding animal and help him load his belongings onto it—that too is charity. Speaking good words is also charity. And every step you take towards the prayer is charity."
