Give away what you can afford in charity instead of indulging yourself with luxury items or meals which are beyond your means .

This hadith speaks to the importance of giving charity, as well as not having two expensive items together. It was narrated by Ibn 'Umar that when Umar entered upon him while he was eating, he made room for him in the middle of the gathering. He said Bismillah before taking a morsel and eating it, then a second. He noticed some fat in the food but it was not from meat, so Abdullah explained that he went out to buy fatty meat but it was too expensive so he bought lean meat instead and added ghee to make up for it. Umar then said that Prophet Muhammad never had these two things together; he would eat one and give the other in charity. This teaches us that we should be generous with our wealth by giving away what we can afford to those who are less fortunate than us, rather than indulging ourselves with luxury items or meals which are beyond our means. We should also remember that Prophet Muhammad himself practiced this principle throughout his life, setting an example for us all to follow.
