Although goodness is every act that brings oneself closer to God, such as charity and others, nevertheless, it has been applied to money, especially the name goodness. God Almighty said, “And if goodness touches it in any way, what is the basis for that that supports it? “Shadid” means money here, so he made generosity in it a character, not a character, and that is why he called it charity, that is, a severe burden on the soul because it departed from its nature in doing so, and for this reason the Almighty God made it forget.

By His Prophet’s saying to the souls: Charity falls into the hand of the Most Merciful, and He raises it just as one of you raises his foal or his offspring.
