Guidebook to God #19 – Distributing what Allah has blessed you with

Charity Allahu Akbar May Allah subhanho wa Taala Minkus mineral Mutasa in those who are charitable in all avenues of our life. Charity is the hallmark of a believer. It's always confined in Thai to Sadat. Notice Allah Subhana Allah to Allah as I believe nimis are the Allahu anhu teaches us that there are three pairings in the Quran there are three concepts always attach with another three. So Allah subhana wa tada always in the foreign will say all to Allah, Rasool be obedient to God and also his messenger Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam. The second pairing is a clean masala where to zeca give your prayer to a loss of Hannah and to Allah, but also spend in your wealth in that

which is pleasing to Allah and pay the cat the purification of your wealth. And the third and finally is our Buddha law Allah to Shinobi he shall worship Allah alone, don't worship other than Allah will bill Wally, they need your Santa and treat your families and your parents with good morality and ethics and righteous conduct. Those three concepts are always intertwined with each other in the Quran. Today, it's important for you to understand the concept of sadaqa and zecca. Now notice these two words, when they're used on their own they mean the same thing. So Allah Subhana Allah, Allah says in the Quran, hoodman and William sada cotton, take from their wealth at Southern

what Allah means by it is zeca because the word is not separated in the Quran in that in that particular area, so sadaqa in itself, it means to show your truthfulness in your belief in Allah, how is my charity, a sign of my truthfulness and belief in Allah subhana wa Tada. It's a very simple concept, that if I believe Allah is the provider, that Allah is the giver of all good that Allah is the one who withholds some of the things that I want from me. If I believe that Allah is the giver, and the taker, therefore that whatever I have, that I give to others, it is a sign to Allah, a testament and an evidence that I believe Allah will return to me what I've spent, that I believe

that Allah is the one who owns all things. And then I'm just a distributor of that which Allah has blessed me with that I believe that I'm a part and parcel of the life's betterment for other people. And therefore it becomes a sadaqa to Buddha Han, the prophets I send him says in authentic hadith, charity is evidence for you. It is evidence on the day of judgment that I put the needs of other people before my want, my needs were met, and there were certain things that I wanted certain luxuries that I wished for. But I looked over there and I saw that that person didn't have their need. They didn't have their food, they didn't have their clothes, they didn't have their shelter,

they didn't have their security, they didn't have their protection. They didn't have their education. They didn't have their nurturing in life. And I said to myself, no, I've been blessed and I want to share from what I have. I want to do it with a willingness and a voluntary intent to please Allah to make somebody's life easier. This becomes great evidence on the Day of Judgment. Did you know that a lot tells us in the Quran, that the first thing that people will say when they cross into the next life, when a person has left this life when a person has passed away, and they're asked, What would you like to do if you were to go back they will say at a sudden Dakota, Minnesota

I want to go back I'll give charity it's not I'll go back and I'll pray to God I'll go back and make Hajj I'll go back and make Irma I'll go back and fast Ramadan. No, I'll give charity why because it's evidence. Allah subhana wa Taala wants to see from you and I that we put other needs other people's needs as a priority, where you see rune Allah and Fujimoto cannot be him. kasasa Allah subhanho wa Taala described the righteous from the Sahaba alley of nabee Talib that he would give from himself even though he needs it. Even though in his home, he's lacking certain things easy, somebody else is lacking more. And although I need it, I'm going to share and I'm going to split my

date in half. Look at the words of the prophets lie Selim. He says it duck would not Oh lol Bishop kitamura. Save yourself from Hellfire, even if it's by splitting, sharing half of your date. And this was actually a reality. I shadow the alarm. In the house of the prophets. I send them a lady knocked on the door and she had two young daughters with a Muslim. And she turned she had asked everywhere else everyone in Medina was in hunger and famine. And the only place she could turn to even though nobody wants to take food from the privatized center. They would rather share their food with a privatized set and she has nowhere to go. So she knocks on the door. They're starving.

They're in a moment of difficulty. And she knocks and the profit is in home. So I said him and his wife Ayesha answers and she

says Yo man, I mean, do you have anything that you can share and I shout out the Aloha. No, she says water bill Kava, by the Lord of the Kava Almighty Allah. All we have in the house of the Prophet are three dates. So I sell them, but you can have them. So I Isha without asking the Prophet I sell them without considering her own self. She gives the last three dates the last food in the house of the prophets, I send them to this mother and the mother takes the dates. She gives one to this daughter, one to his daughter, and the third one's in her hand, and her daughter's wolf down the dates and they look at the third date up in their mother's hand, and she sees them in that condition. She sees

their hunger so she decides to go hungry herself and she breaks the date and gives each of them half and she goes continues to be hungry. I showed her the Allahu Ana she said O Messenger of Allah when he returned such and such and such happened the Prophet immediately said would you but lol Jenna, Paradise is hers. Paradise is written for her for that act of love and, and service that she has shown the mountain they comment if that paradise was for this woman who fed her own children. What then is the paradise that is set in store for a Chateau de la hora on how to blah, the prophets, I sell them who it's They are the ones who are deprived and they're not their family that they have

fed Allahumma salli ala Muhammad, Allah Allah, Allah Muhammad, may Allah make our charity our shelter on the day of judgment and authentic hadith prophets. I seldom said your sadaqa will be your veil, and your shelter and protection on the day of judgment will be like a cloud that protects you from the heat and the difficulty of the Day of Judgment alone. I mean, finally the prophets I sell him he said that there will be seven types of people on the Day of Judgment, who will be given shelter and protection and shade. When other people will desire it, they won't be given it. One of those seven types of category of people is a person who gave with their right hand they put their

hand in their pocket in their wallet and gave with the right hand that they didn't count what was there, they just gave what they had, that even their left hand was unsure of how much was given. They didn't hold their wallet and open and say ah, not the five not that 10 Okay, I'll give I'll give a one or a two. They didn't count they just put it and gave in the path of a law to the path of assisting the needy male law shelter us with our charity. Now lawmakers evidence for us and May Allah make us of those who are generous in spirit and heart and if we have nothing to give material than let us remember the words of the prophets I seldom tebis sumika fee which he efika sadhaka that

when you greet your smile, boo wedgie and tada when you greet your friend with a smiley face, your charity is an extension of the smile that you gave. May Allah brighten our faces with charity. May Allah keep us happy and smiling and increase other people's prosperity through our generosity. And may Allah return to us all that we have spent the prophets of Allah Allah, Allah made a vow and a promise, manacles I met him in South Africa. Never will someone be poor because they gave charity from their wealth. Never will someone be deprived because they gave charity from their wealth. Never will someone be needing, if they've given charity from their wealth, May Allah increase our

prosperity through our charitable illness. Allahumma amin, well suddenly Allahumma salli wa barik ala Sayidina Nabina Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, your brother your hyper Rahim Salam Alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh
