Ibn 'Abbas said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him andgrant him peace, was the most generous of people in giving charity. Hewas even more generous in Ramadan when Jibril, may Allah bless him andgrant him peace, used to meet him. Every night of Ramadan Jibril used tocome to him and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, would read the Qur'an to him. When Jibril came to him, the Messengerof Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was more generous ingiving charity than the blowing wind."
