Al hamdu lillah wa salatu salam ala Rasulillah Assalamu alaykum

Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh. We continue our theme layout at Tom

keen on masala hikma Quran, Kareem, nights of empowerment,

parables and wisdom from the Glorious Quran.

Charity as we know in Islam is one of the pillars of our faith.

And being charitable itself is one of the fundamental characteristics

of a true believer.

Anybody and everybody can be charitable in Islam. Because

charity in Islam is not exclusive to those who have wealth, or those

who have material possessions are those who have money, rather than

what anyone can do to enhance the situation of any other human

being, or any creation of Allah. That is considered as charity in

Islam, the prophets of Allah Allah He, he was happy he was seldom

said in a hadith Kulu salaam Amina Nasir Allah he's

Kulu Yamuna Rafi shims that are deliberateness Nene sadaqa. Well,

Kelly Matata, Eva said, this charity Do you for every person on

every part of his body every day on which the sunrises

to bring justice between people in charity. A good unkind word is

charity. But two people either want to meet with either an

employee or

even to remove something harmful. From the way from the path is a

form of charity, the best from your watch here he collected, even

smiling at someone that is a form of charity.

Keeping all this in mind, we reflect on a competitive statement

of Allah subhanho wa Taala followed by a parable in the Holy

Quran, which Allah subhanho wa Taala StrikeForce with his his

Alma roof era, Pharaoh means other party yet

a forgiving nature, a kind word, and a forgiving nature is far

better than giving charity followed by injury over harm.

In other words, to say something good.

To be nice to someone to be forgiving to someone is better

than helping someone and then insulting them through your help.

Allah then continues, yeah, you are nothing. Oh, you proclaim

faith

not canceled. By reminding people of your generosity calorie you

know who we are and nurse you alive when we live.

Like those people who give charity charity to be noticed by people

without truly having faith, without without truly being

conscious of the Accountable what they do, those who could take it

and hurt people. The parable is for Mr. Liu who come after us of

warning

for so about why we don't

have what is

the parable or their comparison is like a smooth rock and on the rock

raise some sand. And when the rain falls, when the rain falls, the

sand completely washes away.

Insane, you can climb something which can grow and benefit people.

And so to when you get charity, it can benefit the recipient. But

also it benefits the giver because there's a reward for those

for those who are on their terms, the rain and the rain here as you

know what they can learn. And whatever is in the sand can grow

and develop. The rain is symbolic of the blessings of Allah.

However, if you're a charity that sang on the rock, if your charity

belittles a poor human needs, the needy undermines those in need,

because you remind them of your generosity. Then the Prophet

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam in a very well known tradition is

reported to have said people who do that law you can remove all

your will Tiama What are your what are

the among the people who Allah will not look into the DFP Yama

normally purify them? Who are those people among them

are the one who keeps reminding people what he has done for them.

So when you remind people what you do for them

then your charity is like the loser on the rug

and washes away. When the fall comes is no benefit is gone to

about

Allah has yet to be imposed on coffee

Allah guide those who are ungrateful

for waste a lot of reference to be charitable one and we ungrateful.

Because those who get what they give, are given what they give

from Allah in the first place those who give what they give, for

given what they got.

And they should know that in their wealth lies the right of those who

are denied, and that interfere.

In their wealth in their position in what they have lies the share

of those who may be denied, and those who are in need. From all of

this.

The Quran promotes a culture of philanthropy, and charity, charity

that encourages generosity of the giver. But it also emphasizes the

need for the receiver of the charity, not to be insulted. In

other words, it promote generosity. It promotes people to

be charitable, but at the same time, it emphasizes that the one

who receives should not be insulted, should not be

humiliated. In fact, the person who receives should have the

dignity intact.

Our function in life, as people of faith is not merely to have and to

hold, but to give in to serve,

to get but not to forget,

and to do good, but not to hurt. The Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa

sallam said in the last year on your OB mme He, Allah is at the

assistance of a person, as long as that person is of benefit to other

people.

So in helping others, we enhance ourselves, for when you light the

path of another, even lighting the life of someone else, that light

also brings light to your own path and realize that in faith, no

one's installing faith than the one who bends down to help those

who are in need. We become enriched by enriching the lives of

those around us, those who need our assistance. I leave you with

three points for all of us to reflect upon. One good Luma

roofing sadaqa This is Islamic principle, Hadith Rasulullah

sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, Quran Luma aloof in South Africa, every

good deed is charity. And therefore, anyone can be

charitable and everyone can be generous. Number two, it is

evident from all of this, that the intention of a person when doing

any act, the intention is of paramount importance, why we do

why we do what we do, and how we do what we do, determines the

quality of our action, but also it determines whether the deed will

be acceptable to Allah subhanho wa taala. So don't give charity or do

any good deed for show or for any ulterior motive, because as it

assaulted near to look in Cairo mean Amalie the intention of a

believer is better than the D that he does. So, first point, everyone

can be charitable, and anyone can be generous. Number two, your

intention is of primary importance when you do what you do. And

thirdly, never ever let your goodness be a source of

humiliation for anyone else.

We're stuck with Allah wa salam aleikum wa rahmatullah.
