Sayyiduna Abu Dharr Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: Some of the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) said to the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him): O Messenger of Allah! The wealthy people have taken all the reward. They pray as we pray, they fast as we fast, but they give charity from their extra wealth. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Has Allah not made for you that which you can give as charity? «سبحان اللہ» is charity. «اللہ اکبر» is charity. «الحمدللہ» is charity. Reciting «لا الله الا اللہ» is charity. Enjoining good is charity. Forbidding evil is charity.
