MUHAMMAD’S TEACHINGS TO MANKIND

ḤADĪTH OF THE DAY

“ Whenever the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, was presented with something, he would ask, "Is it a charity or a gift (1)?" If they replied, "It is a charity," he would not partake of it, and if they replied, "It is a gift," he would partake of it. Footnotes: (1) The main difference between a charity and a gift is that a charity is given from a position of superiority to someone presumably in need. On the other hand, a gift is given out of appreciation with no sense of superiority; it is often given to gain the affection of the other person. ”
