\r\nNarrated Anas bin Malik:\r\n\r\n
Abu Talha was the richest man in Medina amongst the Ansar and Beeruha' (garden) was the most \r\nbeloved of his property, and it was situated opposite the mosque (of the Prophet.). Allah's Apostle \r\nused to enter it and drink from its sweet water. When the following Divine Verse were revealed: 'you \r\nwill not attain righteousness till you spend in charity of the things you love' (3.92), Abu Talha got up \r\nin front of Allah's Apostle and said, \"O Allah's Apostle! Allah says in His Book, 'You will not attain \r\nrighteousness unless you spend (in charity) that which you love,' and verily, the most beloved to me of \r\nmy property is Beeruha (garden), so I give it in charity and hope for its reward from Allah. O Allah's \r\nApostle! Spend it wherever you like.\" Allah's Apostle appreciated that and said, \"That is perishable \r\nwealth, that is perishable wealth. I have heard what you have said; I suggest you to distribute it among \r\nyour relatives.\" Abu Talha said, \"I will do so, O Allah's Apostle.\" So, Abu Talha distributed it among \r\nhis relatives and cousins. The sub-narrator (Malik) said: The Prophet said: \"That is a profitable \r\nwealth,\" instead of \"perishable wealth\".","english_grade":"Sahih","last_updated":null,"xrefs":""}
