The Importance Of Giving Sadaqa (charity) by hgnbello(m): 4:36pm On Apr 09, 2023
Bismillah Hir Rahman Nir Raheem

All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds, and may His peace and blessings be upon His final messenger, Muhammad, and upon his family and companions.

Dear brothers and sisters in Islam, Today, I would like to talk about the importance of giving Sadaqa, the voluntary charity that we give for the sake of Allah.

As Muslims, we are blessed with many opportunities to give Sadaqa, whether it is in the form of Zakat, which is a compulsory charity that we give once a year, or other forms of voluntary charity, such as helping the needy, supporting Islamic causes, and contributing to the well-being of our community.

Giving Sadaqa is an essential part of our faith, and it carries great rewards and benefits, both in this life and in the hereafter. Allah has promised us in the Quran that those who give Sadaqa will receive manifold rewards from Him, and their wealth will not decrease as a result of their giving. Allah says in Surah Al-Baqarah:

"The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like a seed [of grain] which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And Allah multiplies [His reward] for whom He wills. And Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing." [2:261]

Brothers and sisters, giving Sadaqa is not only a means of earning rewards, but it is also a way of purifying our wealth and purifying our souls. When we give Sadaqa, we demonstrate our gratitude to Allah for the blessings He has bestowed upon us, and we acknowledge that everything we have comes from Him. By giving to those in need, we strengthen the bonds of brotherhood and sisterhood in our community, and we fulfill our obligation to help those who are less fortunate.

Moreover, giving Sadaqa is a way of seeking the pleasure of Allah and earning His forgiveness. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Charity extinguishes sin as water extinguishes fire." [Tirmidhi]

Dear brothers and sisters, we should always remember that the wealth we possess is not truly ours, but it is a trust from Allah. Therefore, we should use it in a way that pleases Him and benefits others. Giving Sadaqa is a way of fulfilling this trust, and it is a means of earning the love and mercy of Allah.

In conclusion, let us remember the importance of giving Sadaqa and the great rewards and benefits that come with it. Let us strive to give generously for the sake of Allah, and let us purify our wealth and souls through our charitable acts. May Allah accept our Sadaqa and bless us with His mercy and forgiveness.

And Allah knows best.

All these are lip-services. Talking the talk, but nobody is ready to walk the talk. Allah know the heart of any man no matter what

Sir, while this is a faceless forum, and while the society is also totally corrupt and filled with some criminal elements, I can confirm that my claims are truth in totality and I wouldn't lie to gain public sympathy. God is on the throne always. Thank you
