Explanation of a Hadith

Q: Never does anybody leave something for the sake of Allah but Allah will give him something better in exchange.

What is the Meaning of the above? Does it mean that If one leaves his family and goes to jamat or other deeni cause then Allah will reward with some better reward? Or does it mean that if one leaves out haraam act or food then one will receive better than that for the sacrifice one makes? Please can you clarify?

A: It can apply to both provided he leaves his family and children in accordance to the shar`ee requirements.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
