Everybody will be shaded by his Sadaqah (on the Day of Judgment) until it has been judged between the people

"Hasten to give charity, for it protects you from calamities." (Mishkat al-Masabih)

Enjoining good and forbidding evil is also charity. And guiding a lost person is also charity for you." (Sunan Tirmidhi)
