وحَدَّثَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ صَخْرٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو النُّعْمَانِ عَارِمُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ ، يَعْنِي ابْنَ زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الأَحْوَلُ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنِي الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ ، قَالَ: خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي يَوْمِ نَحْرٍ ، فَقَالَ: لاَ يُضَحِّيَنَّ أَحَدٌ حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَ ، قَالَ رَجُلٌ: عِنْدِي عَنَاقُ لَبَنٍ هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ شَاتَيْ لَحْمٍ ، قَالَ: فَضَحِّ بِهَا ، وَلاَ تَجْزِي جَذَعَةٌ عَنْ أَحَدٍ بَعْدَكَ.
Al-Bara' bin 'Azib narrated: "The Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) addressed us on the Day of Sacrifice and said: 'No one should offer the sacrifice until he has prayed.' A man said: 'I have a weanling female goat that is better than two sheep for meat.' He said: "Sacrifice it, but no Jadh'ah will suffice for anyone after you."

"When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him."
Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)
"The best of what a man leaves behind are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, ongoing charity the reward of which reaches him, and knowledge that is acted upon after him."
Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
