PLANTING TREES

Planting plants and trees in appropriate places is an act of great merit. Anas has quoted the following Prophetic saying:
A man plants a tree or sows a field and a man or bud eats from it, the tree or field becomes a source of  sadaqah for him. [Bukhari and Muslim)

In other words the merit of advantage taken by a man of beast from a plantation goes continuously to the  planter as a sadaqah jariyah.
