Remember Allah (in all things you do).

FORTY HADITH 25

Also on the authority of Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him);

Some of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said to the Prophet (may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): O Messenger of Allah, the affluent have made off with the rewards: they pray as we pray, they fast as we fast, and they give away in charity the superfluity of their wealth.

He said: Has not Allah made things for you to give away in charity?  Truly every tasbiha is a charity, every takbira is a charity, every tahmida is a charity, and every tahlila is a charity; to enjoin a good action is a charity, to forbid an evil is a charity, and in the sexual act of each of you there is a charity.

They said: O Messenger of Allah, when one of us fulfills his sexual desire will he have some reward?  He said: Do you [not] think that were he to act upon it unlawfully he would be sinning?  Likewise, if he has acted upon it lawfully he will have a reward.

الْحديْث الْخَامس و الْعشْرون

عَنْ أبِى ذَرٍّ رَضِىَ اللهُ عَنْهُ أيْضًا
أنَّ نَاساً مِنْ أصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ سَلَّمَ
قَالُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ صّلَّى اللهُ تَعَالَى عَلَيْهِ وَ سَلَّمَ
يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، ذَهَبَ أهْلُ الدُّثُورِ بِالأُجُورِ
يُصَلُّونَ كَمَا نُصَلِّي ، وَ يَصُومُونَ كَمَا نَصُومُ ، وَ يَتَصَدَّقُونَ بِفُضُولِ أمْوَلِهِمْ

قَالَ ((أوَلَيْسَ قَدْ جَعَلَ اللهُ لَكُمْ مَا تَصَدَّقُونَ؟
إنَّ بِكُلِّ تَسْبِيْحَةٍ صَدَقَةً ، وَ كُلَّ تَكْبِيْرَةٍ صَدَقَةً ، وَ كُلِّ تَحْمِيْدَةٍ صَدَقَةً ، وَ كُلِّ تَهْلِيْلَةٍ صَدَقَةً ، وَ أمْرٍ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ صَدَقَةً ، وَ نَهْيٍ عَنْ مُنْكَرٍ صَدَقَةً ، وَ فِي بُضْعِ أحَدِكُمْ صَدَقَةً ))

قَلُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أيَاْتِي أحَدُنَا شَهْوَتَهُ وَ يَكُونُ لَهُ فِيْهَا أجْرٌ؟
قَالَ ((أرأيْتُمْ لَوْ وَضَعَهَا فِي حَرَامٍ ، أكَانَ عَلَيْهِ وِزْرٌ؟ فَ كَذَلِكَ إذَا وَضَعَهَا فِي الْحَلاَلِ كَانَ لَهُ أجْرٌ ))
