One type of generosity is for the home, and the other type is for when you travel. The chivalry for the home is to recite the Quran, associate with the scholars; ponder over religious decrees; and safeguard congregational prayers. The chivalry for when you travel is to give of what you have taken along with you to your travel companions; to minimize disputes with your travel companions; and remember the Honorable the Exalted God when you ascend, descend or sit down.â
