Tom Facchine – I Was Slandered After Giving Charity

I have a question I gave 1000 purse $1,000 to a person who was

afterwards ungrateful and hurtful to me. I've been making dua

against them for a few months Oof. Well, I don't know what the type

of hurt that you are talking about, in general, a loss potata

tells us and sorts of Bukhara specifically that when we give

charity to somebody, it should not be followed up reminders of the

good that we did for somebody. So it's a note. When Allah spent

Allah talks about the if, right, this was the thing that occurred

where the slander upon Aisha Radi Allahu Taala on her and Abu Bakr,

Abu Bakr is her father. So naturally, he's very emotionally

affected by the slander against his daughter that she did

something improper. Now, Abu Bakar he was he had a relatively Mr. and

Miss thought was poor. So Abu Bakar was financially taken care

of Mr. However, Miss thaw got involved in the if he actually was

one of those people who are spreading. He didn't originate it,

but he was spreading the slander against that issue. So when Abu

Bakar realized this person who he was financially supporting was

actually spreading the slander against his daughter, he cut him

off, and he swore by a law that he would not support him financially

anymore. So Allah subhanaw taala revealed in that Surah that he

should not do that, that he should continue to support. And the

reason why is because is your donation truly for the sake of

Allah? Or is it transactional? Are their expectations that are coming

along with that donation? Are we expecting when we give someone

something that they're going to treat us nice in return, if we

have an expectation that is attached to our donation, then our

donation isn't 100% for Allah subhanaw to audit in the first

place and shake up the lesson Peter used to tell us in Medina,

if you give something to someone in charity, you should be prepared

basically, for them to spit in your face. This is the way to

prove that you're sincere and not actually doing business in the

sense transactional sense like trading it for favors or good

treatment or anything like that. It's a very hard thing and it's a

subtle thing. It's not so but that excludes a situation in which the

harm was was extremely serious, but that's an important thing to

keep in mind. Rasanya That's That's true. It might be better

for you. Honestly, Allah's found out I might be doing something

good for you. And that's actually the phraseology that he uses and

sorts of neurons to talk about the if in general don't think that

this is bad for you. Actually, this is good for you. You're not

insincere Ruslan, if it happened to Abu Bakar have we had that

happen that Abu Bakr then of course, it's going to happen to

you and me. It's just that, you know, the nature of a Muslim is

that we forget, we're reminded that's what we're tested on. When

we're reminded do we come back so we're all in the same in the same

boat?
