Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا نقصت صَدَقَة من مَال شَيْئا وَمَا زَادَ اللَّهُ عَبْدًا بِعَفْوٍ إِلَّا عِزًّا وَمَا تَوَاضَعَ أَحَدٌ لِلَّهِ إِلَّا رَفَعَهُ اللَّهُ» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

Translation

Abu Huraira, may Allah be pleased with him, said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, ‘Charity does not decrease wealth at all. Allah increases a servant in honor when he pardons, and no one humbles himself for Allah but that Allah raises him.’ Muslim transmitted it.
