1296 إِذَا أَنْفَقَ الرجلُ على أَهْلِهِ نَفَقَةً يَحْتَسِبُهَا فهي له صَدَقَةٌ
If a man spends something on his family, seeking reward from Allah for it, it shall be recorded for him as charity

عن أبي مسعود البدري رضي الله عنه مرفوعاً: «إذا أَنْفَقَ الرجلُ على أهله نَفَقَةً يَحْتَسِبُهَا فهي له صَدَقَةٌ».

Abu Mas‘ūd al-Badri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If a man spends something on his family, seeking reward from Allah for it, it shall be recorded for him as charity."

صحيح - ( متفق عليه ). Sahih/Authentic. [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

إذا أنفق الرجل على أهله الذين تلزمه نفقتهم كزوجه وولده، وغيرهم كذلك، وهو يتقرب بذلك إلى الله تعالى ويحتسب عنده أجر ما ينفق فإنه يُجزى بهذه النفقة كأجر الصدقة على الفقراء ونحوهم من وجوه البر.
If a man spends on his family members whom he is required to support, as well as others, thereby seeking closeness to Allah, the Almighty, and desiring His reward, he shall be rewarded for his spending as if he has given charity to the poor and the like.

حصول الأجر والثواب بالإنفاق على الأهل. المؤمن يبتغي في عمله وجه الله وما عنده من الأجر والثواب.
A believer attains a reward for providing for his family, as he seeks Allah’s pleasure and reward by his work.
