﴿اِسۡتَتِرِيۡ مِنَ النَّارِ وَلَوۡ بِشِقِّ تَمۡرَةٍ فَاِنَّهَا تَسُدُّ مِنَ الۡجَائِـعِ مَسَدَّهَا مِنَ الشَّبۡعَانِ﴾ Save yourself from the fire even if with a piece of date; this is tantamount to satiating a hungry person.
(Musnad Imam Ahmad, vol. 9, pp. 359, Hadees 24555)
﴿اَلصَّلَاةُ بُرۡهَانٌ وَّالصَّوۡمُ جُنَّةٌ وَّالصَّدَقَةُ تُطۡفِئُ الۡخَطِيۡئَةَ كَمَا يُطۡفِئُ الۡمَاءُ النَّارَ﴾ Salah is an evidence (of Iman) and fasting is a shield (from sins) and Sadaqah wipes out sins as water extinguishes the fire. (Sunan-ut-Tirmizi, vol. 2, pp. 118, Hadees 614)
A person came to Basra from Khurasan and gave 10 thousand dirhams in trust to Sayyiduna Habib ‘Ajami عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی and requested Sayyiduna Habib ‘Ajami عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی to buy a house for him in which he would live in upon his return from Makkah Mukarramah. During that particular period of time, people had to face the crises of flour inflation; Sayyiduna Habib ‘Ajami عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی bought flour with those dirhams and gave away as a Sadaqah. He was reminded as, ‘That person has given you the money in trust to buy a house for him’. Sayyiduna Habib ‘Ajami عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی replied, ‘I have bought a house for him in Heaven! If he agrees then it is good, otherwise, I would return him his 10 thousand dirhams’.
