Abdullah Bin AlSadi narrated that he came to Umar Bin AlKhattab; may Allah be pleased with him; from AlSham; and he said: I heard that you have been doing some work for the Muslims; and you are given payment for that; but you do not accept it. I said: Yes that is so ; I have horses and slaves and am well-off; and I wanted my work to be an act of charity toward the Muslims. Umar; may Allah be pleased with him; said: I wanted the same thing as you. The Prophet used to give me money; and I would say: Give it to someone who is more in need of it than I am. Once he gave me money and I said: Give it to someone who us more in need of it that I am; and he said: Whatever Allah; the Mighty and Sublime; gives you of this wealth without you asking for it or hoping or it; take it and keep it; or give it in charity; and whatever. He does not give you then do not hope for it or wish for it.
