Sahih Muslim #2250

The Book of Zakat
Sahih

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ مَسْرُوقٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِذَا أَنْفَقَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا غَيْرَ مُفْسِدَةٍ كَانَ لَهَا أَجْرُهَا وَلَهُ مِثْلُهُ بِمَا اكْتَسَبَ وَلَهَا بِمَا أَنْفَقَتْ وَلِلْخَازِنِ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ أُجُورِهِمْ شَيْئًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏
When a woman spends (something as Sadaqa) out of the household of her husband without causing any damage, there is a reward for her and for him too like it for whatever he earned, and for her (for the wife) because of her spending (for the sake of Allah), and for the trustee also (there is a reward like it), without any reduction from their rewards.
Narrated by 'A'isha reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Context

In this hadith, 'A'isha reports that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ emphasized the importance of a woman's charitable spending from her husband's household. He highlighted that if she spends wisely and without causing harm, both she and her husband will receive equal rewards for their contributions. This underscores the value of collaboration in charitable acts within a family setting.

Modern Application

In today's context, this principle encourages families to engage in charitable giving together. When a woman contributes to charity from the household resources, it fosters a spirit of teamwork and shared responsibility in supporting those in need, enhancing family bonds and collective goodwill.

Topics

This hadith is tagged with Charity and Good Deeds because it illustrates the rewards associated with charitable actions taken by a woman within her household.

But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand.
