Sayyiduna Awf bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that whenever something (wealth) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), he would distribute it on the same day. He would give two shares to a married person and one share to an unmarried person. Awf says: I used to be called before Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him); I also had a wife. So when I was called, he gave me two shares. Then later Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him) was called, and he gave him one share.
