The Sunnah

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Every joint of a person must perform a charity each day the sun rises: to act justly between two people is charity; to help a man with his mount is charity; a good word is charity; every step you take to prayer is charity; and removing a harmful thing from the road is charity."
