ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ كُلَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:
الْيَدُ الْعُلْيَا خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَى، وَخَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةِ مَا أَبْقَتْ غِنًى، وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ

The upper hand is better than the lower hand, the best charity is that which leaves wealth behind, and begin with those you support.
