As-Salaam alaikum,

Ayat 9 of Surat Hashar of the Holy Qur'an (59:9) reads:--

"...AND WHO PREFER OTHERS OVER THEMSELVES, EVEN THOUGH POVERTY
BE THEIR LOT."

Concerning this noble ayat, it is related on the authority of Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that "a man from the Ansar had a guest for the night but no food to offer him, except for a few morsels he had put aside for his children. The man said to his wife, 'put the children to sleep, put out the light, then serve our guest whatever we have.' Then the ayat was revealed." [Related by Tirmidhi].

Righteous servants do their utmost to conceal the good they do, denoting selfless preference for the welfare of others.
