The Prophet, praise and veneration be upon him, was moved by Abu
Talha's generosity and told him to divide the date grove amongst his
relatives. And so Abu Talha divided it between his relatives.

We often think of giving charity to the poor, which is of course a highly
recommended thing to do, but as you have just learned in this story, you
can also give charity to family members. Perhaps there is someone in your
family who may not have as much as you do, and through your giving, you
will, InshaAllah, establish a closer relationship with them and become
greater friends. Remember, even if you don't have anything to give, a smile
is also charity.
