Sahih Muslim Book - 6, Hadith - 1620
وَحَدَّثَنِى مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ حَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ سِيرِينَ قَالَ تَلَقَّيْنَا أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ حِينَ قَدِمَ الشَّامَ فَتَلَقَّيْنَاهُ بِعَيْنِ التَّمْرِ فَرَأَيْتُهُ يُصَلِّى عَلَى حِمَارٍ وَوَجْهُهُ ذَلِكَ الْجَانِبَ - وَأَوْمَأَ هَمَّامٌ عَنْ يَسَارِ الْقِبْلَةِ - فَقُلْتُ لَهُ رَأَيْتُكَ تُصَلِّى لِغَيْرِ الْقِبْلَةِ. قَالَ لَوْلاَ أَنِّى رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ -صلى الله عليه وسلم- يَفْعَلُهُ لَمْ أَفْعَلْهُ.
It was narrated from Hammam: Anas bin Sirin, narrated to us, he said: "We met Anas bin Malik when he came from- Ash-Sham, and we met him in 'Ayn At-Tamr. I saw him offering prayers atop a donkey which was facing in that direction" - and Hammam pointed to the left of the Qiblah. "I said to him: 'I saw you praying in a direction other than the Qiblah.' He said: 'Had I not seen the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) doing that, I would not have done it."'

"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.'"
