Sadaqah - Blog Posts

❝ When Allah blesses you with a chance to help and support your brother, recognise it as a true blessing! Consider yourself the one being helped. Allah has bestowed upon you the blessings to help others and cleanse yourself. You are a mere vessel of opportunity—either you help or you don’t. Remember, Allah will always find a way to support and aid His faithful slaves. Allah selected you and preferred you for the opportunity to be presented to. But if you don’t help yourself by giving charity and reject this blessing of Allah, you have no one to help you and you are accountable for every penny. The angels will make Duah against you and your fortune sooner or later will diminish as it’s void of the blessings of Allah. Exactly what happened to those before you. ❞

— Shaykh Musa Jibril حفظه الله

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه اللّٰه :

"Each time a charitable person gives, he feels his heart expanding and his breath relieved, as if a robe of iron were loosening for him.

Whenever he gives, it loosens, relaxes and expands; his happiness grows even stronger and his joy increases."

[The Invocation of God | Pg. 38]
