Abu Huraira reported that a person came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and said: Messenger of Allah, which charity is the greatest in reward? (The Prophet said): By your father, beware, you should give charity (in a state when you are) healthy and close-fisted, haunted by the fear of poverty, and still hoping to live (as rich). And you must not defer charity (to the time) when you are about to die, and would then say: This is for so and so, and this for so and so. It has already become the possession of so and so.
و حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ وَابْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيُّ الصَّدَقَةِ أَعْظَمُ أَجْرًا فَقَالَ أَمَا وَأَبِيكَ لَتُنَبَّأَنَّهُ أَنْ تَصَدَّقَ وَأَنْتَ صَحِيحٌ شَحِيحٌ تَخْشَى الْفَقْرَ وَتَأْمُلُ الْبَقَاءَ وَلَا تُمْهِلَ حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغَتْ الْحُلْقُومَ قُلْتَ لِفُلَانٍ كَذَا وَلِفُلَانٍ كَذَا وَقَدْ كَانَ لِفُلَانٍ
  ابن فضیل نے عمارہ سے انھوں نے ابو زرعہ سے انھوں نے حضرت ابو ہریرہ رضی اللہ تعالیٰ عنہ سے روایت کی ، انھوں نے کہا : ایک آدمی رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کے پا س آیا اور عرض کی : اے اللہ کے رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ! کون سا صدقہ اجر میں برا ہے ؟ آپ نے فر ما یا : " ہاں تمھا رے باپ کا بھلا ہو تمھیں اس بات سے آگا ہ کیا جا ئے گا وہ یہ کہ تم اس وقت صدقہ کرو جب تم تندرست ہو اور مال کی خواہش رکھتے ہو فقر سے ڈرتے ہو اور لمبی زندگی کی امید رکھتے ہو اور ( خود کو ) اس قدر مہلت نہ دو کہ جب تمھا ری جان حلق تک پہنچ جا ئے تو پھر ( وصیت کرتے ہوئے ) کہو فلا ں کا اتنا ہے اور فلا ں کا اتنا ہے وہ تو فلا ں کا ہو ہی چکا ۔

Mu'awiya said: Be cautious about ahadith except those which were current during the reign of Umar, for he exhorted people to fear Allah, the Exalted and mMajestic. I heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: He upon whom Allah intends to bestow goodness, He confers upon him an insight in religion; and I heard the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) as saying: I am the treasurer. To one whom I give out of (my own) sweet will, he would be blessed in that, but he whom I give (yielding to) his constant begging and for his covetousness is like one who would eat, but would not be satisfied.
