The Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) said, “The example of a miser and an almsgiver is like the example
of two persons wearing iron cloaks.” Allah’s Messenger Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) also said, “The example of an
almsgiver and a miser is like the example of two persons who have two iron cloaks on them from their breasts
to their collar bones, and when the almsgiver wants to give in charity, the cloak becomes capacious till it
covers his whole body to such an extent that it hides his fingertips and covers his footprints (obliterates
his tracks). (1) And when the miser wants to spend, it (the iron cloak) sticks and every ring gets stuck to
its place, and he tries to widen it, but it does not become wide.
(Sahih al-Bukhari: 1443)
5. Narrated to Hazrat Ikrima:
That Ibn e Abbas told him and Ali bin Abdullah to go to Abu Saeed and listen to some of his narrations; So
they both went (and saw) Abu Saeed and his brother irrigating a garden belonging to them. When he saw them,
he came up to them and sat down with his legs drawn up and wrapped in his garment and said, “(During the
construction of the mosque of the Prophet) we carried the adobe of the mosque, one brick at a time while
Ammar used to carry two at a time. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) passed by Ammar, removed the dust off his head,
and said, “May Allah be merciful to Ammar. A rebellious, aggressive group will kill him. Ammar will invite
them to (Obey) Allah, and they will invite him to the (Hell) fire.
(Sahih al-Bukhari: 2812)
