In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Imam Muhammad Ibn Salih Al-Uthaymeen, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:

The Prophet (ﷺ) was the most generous of all the people, and he used to become more generous in Ramadan. (Bukhari)

He (ﷺ) was the most generous with his wealth, his body, his knowledge, his calling (to good), *his sincere advice and everything else which benefits the people.* And he was more generous in Ramadhan because it is the month of generosity in which Allah is (even more) generous towards his servants and towards his successful servants who are generous to their brothers (and sisters) and Allah (The Most High) is Jawaad and He Loves generosity.

Sharh Riyadh As-Saaliheen

(1) “Indeed Allah is Jawaad (Generous) and He loves generosity, and He loves noble (high) morals and hates lowly (bad) character.” [Saheeh Al-Jaami’ no. 1744]
