As Salaamu Alaikum (Peace Be Upon You),

 

The Prophet (peace be upon him) had said, “Give Sadaqah (Charity) without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.”  (Tirmidhi #1887)

It has also been narrated that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, “Every Muslim has to give Sadaqah (charity).” The people asked, “O Allah’s Prophet, if someone has nothing to give, what should he do?” He said, “He should work with his hands and benefit himself and also give in charity (from what he earns).” The people further asked, “If he cannot find even that?” He replied, “He should help the needy who appeal for help.” Then the people asked, “If he cannot do that?” He replied, “Then he should perform good deeds and keep away from evil deeds and this will be regarded as charitable deeds.” (Bukhari #2.524)
