Numerous ways of doing Good
Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`as (May Allah be pleased with them) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "There are forty kinds of virtue; the uppermost of them is to lend a (milch) she-goat (to someone in order to benefit from it and then return it). He who practices any of these virtues expecting its reward and relying on the truthfulness of the promise made for it, shall enter Jannah."[Al-Bukhari].


Commentary:
Loaning of anything to someone for temporary benefit, without loosing the right of its ownership, is a meritorious act.

باب في بَيان كثرةِ طرق الخير
الثَّاني والْعشْرُونَ : عنْ أَبِي محمدٍ عبدِ اللَّهِ بنِ عمرو بن العاص رضي اللَّه عنهما قال : قال رسول اللَّه صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم : « أَرْبعُونَ خَصْلةً أَعلاها منِيحةُ الْعَنْزِ، ما مِنْ عامَلٍ يعملَ بِخَصْلَةٍ مِنْها رجاءَ ثَوَابِهَا وتَصْدِيقَ موْعُودِهَا إِلاَّ أَدْخلَهُ اللَّهُ بِهَا الْجنَّةَ » رواه البخارى.« الْمنِيحةُ » : أَنْ يُعْطِيَهُ إِيَّاهَا ليأْكُل لبنَهَا ثُمَّ يَردَّهَا إِليْهِ .
