Assalam alaikum,

Anas, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that the Prophet, peace be upon him, prayed: "O Allah, keep me poor in this life and let me die poor." When A'isha, may Allah be pleased with her, asked the reason for this prayer, the Prophet, peace be upon him, said:-

"The poor will take 40 year march over others in getting into

Paradise. O A'isha! Let no destitute go disappointed from

your door; give him something even if it be a date, love the

poor and let him come near to you, for then Allah will let you

come near to Himself." [Tirmidhi, Baihaqi].
