عن جابر رضي الله عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه و سلم : [ كل معروف صدقة ] رواه البخاري . ورواه مسلم من رواية حذيفة رضي الله عنه
Jabir (May Allah be pleased with him) reported that he heard Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying, "Every good deed is charity".
[Al-Bukhari].
Muslim has reported the same on the authority of Hudhaifah (May Allah be pleased with him).
Commentary: We come to know from this Hadith that whatever good action and deed is done by a Muslim, he gets a reward of Sadaqah on it. The word Ma`ruf stands here for every virtue and noble deed. Renunciation of evils is also a virtue (Mar`uf).
