Abu Umama reported,

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Son of Adam, giving away your surplus is better for you, and holding it back is worse for you. You will not be blamed for keeping what is sufficient. Begin with those whom you support, and the upper hand is better than the lower hand."

عن أبي أمامة، قال

قال رسول الله ﷺ: يا ابن آدم، إنك أن تبزل الفضل خير لك، وأن تمسكه شرر لك، ولا تلام على كفاف، وابدأ بمن تعول، واليد العليا خير من اليد السفلى.
