كتاب الصدقات — Book of Sadaqah
الترغيب في الإنفاق في وجوه الخير كرماً، والترهيب من الإمساك والادخار شحّاً
Chapter 15: Encouragement to spend generously in avenues of good, and warning against withholding and hoarding out of miserliness
Hadith 918: On the authority of Abū Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him), that he heard the Messenger of Allaah ﷺ say:
“The example of the miser and the one who spends is the example of two men wearing coats of armour made of iron, covering from their chests up to their collarbones.
As for the one who spends, he does not spend except that the armour expands or stretches …until it covers his skin, concealing even his fingertips and and covers his footprints (obliterates his tracks).
And as for the miser, he does not wish to spend anything except that every ring of the armour clings to its place, and when he tries to expand it, it does not widen.”
— Narrated by al-Bukhārī and Muslim, Sahīh Targheeb wa Tarheeb (of Shaykh Muhammad Nāsir ud-Dīn Al-Albānī رحمه الله) in the Book of Sadaqah
