I buy things from an old woman because I need these items, but with the intention of benefiting her with the money. Will I be rewarded?

Question:
She says: I am, praise be to Allah, a university student, and I have a specific allowance from my father. Every month I set aside the amount I give in charity, but this amount is quite small, and I am shy to give it to a needy person. So, when I find an old woman on the road selling some children's toys and their food, she, in her situation, does not accept charity, but I buy things from her with the intention of benefiting her as well. Will I be rewarded, given the circumstances mentioned? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This is not charity; this is buying and selling. But give charity to the needy, even if it is small. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: even if it is small. If it is with a good intention and from lawful earnings, then Allah the Exalted accepts it and increases it for its owner. So do not belittle any amount of charity, and the needy person benefits from everything, even if it is small. Yes.
