1687. It was reported from Hammām bin Munnabah, who said: "I heard Abū Hurairah, saying: 'The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "If a woman gives charity from the earnings of her husband without him having commanded her to do so, then she will get half the reward." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
1687 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا أَنْفَقَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ كَسْبِ زَوْجِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَمْرِهِ، فَلَهَا نِصْفُ أَجْرِهِ»
