Saad Tasleem – Is It Okay to Regift

			Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatu so one of the issues that gets brought up a fair amount is
the issue of re gifting. Is it okay islamically? Is it okay? To be gift? If somebody gives you a
gift, is it okay to take that gift and to give it to someone else as a gift? Now, I know some people
don't like that idea. They're, they're uneasy with that concept. And sometimes people will say that
the process that I'm actually told us not to do that. And what they're referring to, is this
statement, which is actually not a statement,
		

			which says, Do not doubt that a gift should not be given as a gift or in other words, a gift should
not be re gifted. And even though some people attribute the statement to the item, this is not a
statement of the profits. That ally said, No, it is not a Hadeeth. This is just a statement that has
become common amongst people, like people have heard it. And like I said, it's common, but it is not
a statement of the purpose of setting them. And actually, if you look at the Sonos system, you look
at his life, you find the opposite of this statement, and that is that the person seldom, not only
did he not forbid us, or stop us or discourage us from re gifting his Sinatra shows that it is
		

			perfectly fine. It is perfectly normal, it is okay to re gift the President himself. We have
numerous authentic narrations in whispers tenebris. gifted, we have no narration in which the person
was given a gift as mentioned by the body, the person was given a gift and he took that gift and
gave it to someone else as a gift. And like I said, there's numerous narrations. So islamically,
there's absolutely nothing wrong with taking a gift that you have been given and giving it to
somebody else, and even selling that gift. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a sonically it's
considered your property, it's yours. And you can do with it, whatever you like. And I know
		

			sometimes people like I said, they don't like the idea. And sometimes people may feel hurt. Like if
we find out that we gave someone a gift, and they gave it to someone else, we may feel hurt, like
maybe they didn't like it or they don't care for they don't care for it. Or sometimes we may feel
the person is being cheap, right. So they don't want to buy a gift for someone else, or they're
using the gift that you gave them. And first of all, like islamically, like we can't make
assumptions about people's intentions, like we don't know what their intentions are. We don't know
why they did it. And we should assume the best. And one of the things that that I would encourage is
		

			that if we do find out that someone took a gift that we gave them, and they gave it to somebody
else, one of the intentions that we should have is that we should feel we should feel happy that the
person was able to take something we gave to them and pass it on to someone else and bring happiness
to someone else's life and increase love. And that's actually one of the purposes of giving gifts to
increase love. Per centum said, the how to do to have books that give gifts and increase love
amongst one another. So we should feel happy that you know we gave this gift to this person because
of that gift they were able to able to bring happiness to the life of someone else. And whatever
		

			reward they get for giving that gift we share in that reward as well. So this stigma we have about
re gifting. We need to like get rid of it. There's no place for it in Islam. As I said we should
assume the best in the person. And even like when we if we do we gift like there's nothing to feel
guilty about. We shouldn't be ashamed to do it. It is perfectly normal and a Lost Planet Allah knows
best take care said I'm more equal than what I have to lie
