Imam Ali (AS) said, Beware of withholding [charity], for indeed you are [only] a treasurer for someone else in that which you withhold from what is in excess of your daily requirement.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إيّاكَ وَ الإمْساكَ فَإنَّ ما أمْسَكْتَهُ فَوْقَ قُوتِ يَوْمِكَ كُنْتَ فيهِ خازِناً لِغَيْرِكَ
