On the authority of Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) who reported that he heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) saying, "On every joint of man, there is charity, on everyday when the sun rises: doing justice between two men is charity, and assisting a man to ride an animal or to load his luggage on it is charity; and a good word is charity, every step which one takes towards (the mosque for) prayer is charity, and removing harmful things from the way is charity." (Reported by al-- Bukhari and Muslim)
On the authority of Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) who reported: Some people said
to the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him), "O Messenger of Allah, the rich have taken away (all the) reward. They observe prayer as we do; and give charity out of their surplus wealth." Upon this he (the Prophet (may peace be upon him)) said, "Has Allah not prescribed for you (a course) following which you can (also) give charity? In every declaration of the glorification of Allah (i.e., saying Subhan Allah) there is a charity, and in every Takbir (i.e., saying Allahu Akbar) is a charity, and in every celebration of praise (saying al-- hamdu lillah) is a charity, and in every declaration that He is One (La ilaha illallah) is a charity, and in enjoining of good is a charity, and in forbidding evil is a charity, and in man's sexual intercourse (with his wife) there is a charity." They (the Companions) said, "O Messenger of Allah, is there reward for him who satisfies his sexual need among us?" He said, "You see, if he were to satisfy it with something forbidden, would it not be a sin on his part? Similarly, if he were to satisfy it legally, he should be rewarded."
