Charity Projects
It was narrated from Buraidah Al-Aslami that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
“Whoever gives respite to one in difficulty, he will have (the reward of) an act of charity for each day. Whoever gives him respite after payment becomes due, will have (the reward of) an act of charity equal to (the amount of the loan) for each day.” (Sunan Ibn Majah, Vol. 3, Book 15, Hadith 2418)
Abu Huraira reported that there came a person to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: "Messenger of Allah, which charity is the best? Upon this he said: That you should give charity (in a state when you are) healthy and close-fisted, one haunted by the fear of poverty, hoping to become rich (charity in such a state of health and mind is the best). And you must not defer (charity to such a length) that you are about to die and would be saying: This is for so and so, and this is for so and so. Lo, it has already come into (the possession of so and so)." (Sahih Muslim, Book 12, Hadith 119)
