Sahih Bukhari Volume 3, Book 30, Hadith 1979
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُجَاهِدًا، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رضى الله عنهما عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " صُمْ مِنَ الشَّهْرِ ثَلاَثَةَ أَيَّامٍ ". قَالَ أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ. فَمَا زَالَ حَتَّى قَالَ " صُمْ يَوْمًا وَأَفْطِرْ يَوْمًا " فَقَالَ " اقْرَإِ الْقُرْآنَ فِي شَهْرٍ ". قَالَ إِنِّي أُطِيقُ أَكْثَرَ. فَمَا زَالَ حَتَّى قَالَ فِي ثَلاَثٍ
Narrated By Mujahid from 'Abdullah bin 'Amr : The Prophet said (to 'Abdullah), "Fast three days a month." 'Abdullah said, (to the Prophet) "I am able to fast more than that." They kept on arguing on this matter till the Prophet said, "Fast on alternate days, and recite the whole Qur'an once a month." 'Abdullah said, "I can recite more (in a month)," and the argument went on till the Prophet said, "Recite the Qur'an once each three days." (i.e. you must not recite the whole Qur'an in less than three days).

Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)
"The best of what a man leaves behind are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, ongoing charity the reward of which reaches him, and knowledge that is acted upon after him."
Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
