It is one of the most rewarding acts we can do in our lives as the benefits of giving this type of charity can be reaped in this lifetime and long after we have passed. It can be giving food or money to the needy just as it can be a smaller scale good deed like saying a good word. And the prophet muhammad on him be peace said.
The word sadaqah is derived from the arabic root word sadq truth.
The literal meaning of the word is to spend from one s own wealth and possessions in the way of the almighty allah. And the prophet muhammad on him be peace said. Sadaqah jariyah is a form of on going charity that a person will continue to benefit from even after they have passed away and left this world. But the best of charities in my mind is the one that flows on and on.
