It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that some Ansar people came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and they asked him, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) gave them. Whoever among them kept asking him (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) kept giving him, until whatever he (peace and blessings be upon him) had was finished. When whatever he (peace and blessings be upon him) had was finished, he said: "Whatever wealth we have, we will not withhold it from you, but the reality is that whoever refrains from asking, Allah Almighty will keep him from asking; whoever expresses independence from people, Allah Almighty will make him independent; and whoever adopts patience, Allah Almighty will grant him the ability to be patient. And you will not be given any blessing (from Allah Almighty) that is more expansive than patience."
