Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the meaning of the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih al-Bukhari 3673?
Answer:
It is regarding excellence. That is to say, if you gave in charity a mountain of pure gold, it would not equal in reward and virtue the charity of a Companion who gave a mudd of barley. This is due to their excellence, and that their deeds are better than the deeds of others, and that their charity is better than that of those who came after them.
