✧ Alif with Sin
"السَّخَاءُ شَجَرَةٌ في الجَنَّةِ، فمَنْ كَان سَخِيًّا أَخذَ بِغُصْنٍ منها، فلمْ يَتْركْهُ الْغُصْنُ حَتَّى يُدْخلُه الجَنَّةَ، والشُّحُّ شَجَرَةٌ في النَّارِ فمَنْ كان شَحِيحًا أَخَذَ بِغُصْنٍ من أَغْصَانِهِا، فَلَمْ يَتْرُكهُ الْغُصْنُ حَتَّى يُدْخِلَهُ النَّارَ".

"Generosity is a tree in Paradise. Whoever is generous takes hold of one of its branches, and the branch does not leave him until it brings him into Paradise. Stinginess (shuhh) is a tree in the Fire. Whoever is stingy takes hold of one of its branches, and the branch does not leave him until it brings him into the Fire."
