ON PRIORITY IN CARITY A Banu man 'Udhra freed a slave after his death (i.e. made a will as part of his posthumous will, was still alive). This came to the knowledge of the Messenger of Allah (may peace be with him), who asked, "Do you possess any wealth beyond that?" The man replied, "No." Then the Prophet said: "Who will buy this slave from me?" Nu'aim ibn Abdullah bought it for eight hundred dirhams, who were delivered to the Prophet (may peace be with him), and he returned them to man. Then he said: "Start with yourself and spend it on you. If there's anything left, spend it on your family. If there's any left, spend it on your relatives. And if there is still, then so, so," pointing forward, to the right and to the left. — Musslim 997a #Caridade
