hadith 1028
Imam Sadiq (a.s) said: “Give charity and be sure you will receive a reward later. Know that whoever does not give charity out of obedience to God will suffer later on from spending in the way of committing sins. And whoever does not attempt to help fulfill the needs of God's friends will later have to try to fulfill the needs of God's enemies.”
عنه (عليه السلام) قال
أنفق بالخلف، واعلم أنه من لم ينفق في طاعة الله ابتلي بأن ينفق في معصية الله، واعلم أن من لم يمش في حاجة ولي الله ابتلي بأن يمشي في حاجة عدو الله.

Imam Sadiq (a.s) narrated that once when God's Prophet (a.s) passed by Bilal who had some dates, he told him
“O' Bilal! Are you sure you will not go to Hell due to these dates? So give some in charity and have no fear of poverty.”
عنه (عليه السلام) قال
مر رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) على بلال وعنده كر من تمر، فقال: يا بلال، آمنت أن تصبح بها في نار جهنم، أنفق يا بلال ولا تخف من ذي العرش إقتارا.
