The Hadith of the day

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:

The Prophet (PBUH) said, "Two angels descend every morning, and one says: `O Allah, give him who spends something, in place of what he spends.' The other one says: `O Allah, give destruction to him who withholds".

[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].

Commentary:  This Hadith provides justification to pray for virtuous people to get better than what they have spent, and to destroy the wealth of the niggardly who refuse to spend in the way of Allah.

Riyad-us-Saliheen (295)
