The Meaning of the Hadith: "Charity Does Not Diminish Wealth"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Charity does not diminish wealthما نقصت صدقةٌ من مال
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2029Sahih (Darussalam)
Is the intended meaning an increase in the wealth itself, or in the reward?

Answer:
The reward, the blessing in the wealth, and the replacement:
But whatever thing you spend [in His cause] - He will compensate itوَمَا أَنْفَقْتُمْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ فَهُوَ يُخْلِفُهُ
[Surat Saba: 39] The replacement comes to him, and he does not know from which direction it comes, so Allah replaces it for him in this world and rewards him in the Hereafter.
