Zakat
He reported God’s messenger as saying,
“Liberality is a tree in paradise of which he who is liberal will seize a branch, and the branch will not leave him till it brings him into paradise. And niggardliness is a tree in hell of which he who is niggardly will seize a branch, and the branch will not leave him till it brings him into hell.”
Baihaqi transmitted it in Shu’ab al-iman.
