Charity in Islam – Importance and Benefits

Charity is one of the most noble and virtuous deeds in Islam. It is a sign of faith, compassion, and generosity. Charity is not only a duty, but also a privilege and a blessing for Muslims. Charity can take many forms, such as giving money, food, clothes, or any other useful thing to those in need. Charity can also be done by helping others with one’s time, skills, knowledge, or advice. Charity can even be as simple as smiling, saying a kind word, or removing harm from the way.

Charity has many benefits and rewards for both the giver and the receiver. In this article, we will explore some of the importance and benefits of charity in Islam based on the Quran and Hadith.

Charity is an act of worship

Charity is not just a social service or a humanitarian gesture. It is an act of worship and obedience to Allah. Allah says in the Quran:

“O you who have believed, spend from that which We have provided for you before there comes a Day in which there is no exchange and no friendship and no intercession. And the disbelievers – they are the wrongdoers.” (Quran 2:254)

“Take, [O, Muhammad], from their wealth a charity by which you purify them and cause them increase, and invoke [Allah’s blessings] upon them. Indeed, your invocations are reassurance for them. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing.” (Quran 9:103)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“Charity is a proof of faith.” (Muslim)

“Every act of goodness is charity.” (Muslim)

Charity purifies the soul and the wealth

Charity is a means of purifying one’s soul from greed, selfishness, and attachment to worldly possessions. It is also a means of purifying one’s wealth from any unlawful or doubtful sources. Allah says in the Quran:

“Take from their wealth a charity to purify them and cleanse them thereby.” (Quran 9:103)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“Charity extinguishes sin as water extinguishes fire.” (Tirmidhi)

“Whoever gives charity equal to a date from good (halal) earnings – for Allah does not accept anything but that which is good – Allah will take it in His right hand and tend it for the one who gave it as any one of you tends his foal, until it becomes like a mountain.” (Bukhari)

Charity increases the blessings and the reward

Charity is a way of showing gratitude to Allah for His favors and blessings. It is also a way of seeking more blessings and reward from Him in this life and the hereafter. Allah says in the Quran:

“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.” (Quran 2:261)

“Whoever does good – whether male or female – while he is a believer – We will surely cause him to live a good life, and We will surely give them their reward [in the Hereafter] according to the best of what they used to do.” (Quran 16:97)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“The best charity is that which is given when one is rich.” (Bukhari)

“The most beloved deed to Allah is to make a Muslim happy, or to remove one of his troubles, or to forgive his debt, or to feed his hunger.” (Tabarani)

Charity protects from calamities and hardships

Charity is a shield and a protection from various calamities and hardships that may afflict a person in this life or in the hereafter. It is also a means of attaining Allah’s mercy and forgiveness. Allah says in the Quran:

“And spend [in the way of Allah] from what We have provided you before death approaches one of you and he says, ‘My Lord, if only You would delay me for a brief term so I would give charity and be among the righteous.'” (Quran 63:10)

“And whatever you spend of good – it will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.” (Quran 2:272)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“Charity does not decrease wealth.” (Muslim)

“Give charity without delay, for it stands in the way of calamity.” (Tirmidhi)

Charity benefits the giver more than the receiver

Charity is not only beneficial for those who receive it, but also for those who give it. The giver gains more reward, satisfaction, happiness, and peace of mind than the receiver. Charity is also a sign of faith, compassion, and generosity. Allah says in the Quran:

“You will not attain to piety until you spend of that which you love. And whatsoever you spend, Allah is Aware thereof.” (Quran 3:92)

“Who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned.” (Quran 2:245)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said:

“Indeed, the upper hand (the one who gives) is better than the lower hand (the one who receives).” (Bukhari)

“Verily, the most beloved people to Allah are those who are most beneficial to people.” (Tabarani)

Conclusion

Charity is one of the most noble and virtuous deeds in Islam. It is an act of worship, purification, gratitude, blessing, protection, and benefit. Charity can take many forms and can be done by anyone at any time. Charity is a way of expressing our love for Allah and His creation. Charity is a way of making this world a better place for ourselves and others. Charity is a way of preparing for the hereafter and attaining Allah’s pleasure and paradise.

Islam is not just a religion, it is a way of life. It teaches us to be compassionate, generous, and helpful to others, especially those who are less fortunate than us. Allah (SWT) says in the Quran:

“Who is it that would loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over? And it is Allah who withholds and grants abundance, and to Him you will be returned.” (Quran 2:245)

Donating for Islam is a form of worship that brings us closer to Allah (SWT) and earns us His rewards and blessings. It is also a way of purifying our wealth and our souls from greed and selfishness. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:

Donating for Islam is also a way of showing solidarity and brotherhood with our fellow Muslims who are suffering from poverty, oppression, war, natural disasters, or other hardships. It is a way of fulfilling our duty as Muslims to care for each other and to uphold justice and peace in the world. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said:

How Our Islamic Charity Helps Women Choose Hijab
Hijab is not just a piece of cloth that covers the head. It is a symbol of modesty, dignity, and faith for many Muslim women. Hijab is also a choice that each woman makes for herself, according to her understanding of Islam and her personal preferences.

However, choosing hijab is not always easy. Some women may face challenges from their families, friends, or society. Some women may struggle with finding suitable clothes and scarves that fit their style and budget. Some women may lack the skills or resources to sew their own hijab.

That’s why our Islamic charity exists. We are a team of dedicated Muslims who want to support women who choose hijab. We believe that every woman has the right to practice her faith and express her identity without any obstacles or difficulties.

What We Do
Our Islamic charity provides various services and programs to help women who choose hijab. Some of the things we do are:

  • We offer free sewing classes for women who want to learn how to make their own hijab. We provide the materials, tools, and instructors. We also teach women how to design and customize their hijab according to their taste and needs.
  • We distribute free fabric and scarves for women who cannot afford to buy them. We source our fabric and scarves from ethical and sustainable suppliers. We also accept donations from generous individuals and organizations who want to contribute to our cause.
  • We organize workshops and seminars for women who want to learn more about hijab and its benefits. We invite experts and scholars who can share their knowledge and experience on topics such as the history, meaning, and etiquette of hijab, the health and beauty benefits of hijab, the legal and social rights of hijabi women, and the best practices and tips for wearing hijab in different situations.
  • We create a supportive and friendly community for women who choose hijab. We connect them with other hijabi sisters who can offer advice, encouragement, and friendship. We also host social events and activities where women can have fun, relax, and bond with each other.

Why We Do It
Our Islamic charity is motivated by our love for Allah (SWT) and our desire to follow His commands. We believe that hijab is an act of worship that pleases Allah (SWT) and brings us closer to Him. We also believe that hijab is a gift that Allah (SWT) has given us to protect us, honor us, and beautify us.

We also do it because we care about our fellow Muslim sisters. We want them to feel confident, comfortable, and happy with their choice of hijab. We want them to enjoy the benefits of hijab in this life and the next. We want them to be proud of their identity as Muslim women.

How You Can Help
Our Islamic charity relies on the generosity and support of our donors and volunteers. If you share our vision and mission, you can help us in many ways:

ReligionWhat We DoWomen’s Programs

I am a content writer for our islamic charity, a charity institution that works to help the poor and needy people around the world. I am also a part of the charity team, and I share the same vision and mission as you. We believe in the values of Islam, such as compassion, generosity, justice, and mercy. We also believe in the concept of Sadaqah Jariyah, which is a continuous charity that benefits the donor and the recipient even after death.

In this article, I want to tell you about some of the amazing projects that we do based on setting up small fruit gardens or any Sadaqah Jariyah projects or other empowerment that is on the agenda. These projects are designed to improve the lives of the people in different countries and regions, such as Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. We aim to provide them with sustainable sources of income, food, and water, as well as education, health care, and social services.

I hope that you will enjoy reading this article and learn more about our work and our projects. I hope that you will also feel inspired and motivated to support us with your prayers, your donations, your feedback, and your suggestions. I hope that you will also join us in our journey of making a positive difference in this world.

The Fruit Garden Project
One of the examples of our projects is the fruit garden project. This project involves planting fruit trees in areas where there is enough water and soil for them to grow. The fruit trees provide shade, oxygen, and beauty to the environment. They also produce fruits that can be eaten by the people or sold in the market. The fruits can also be used to make jams, juices, or other products. The fruit trees are a gift that keeps on giving, as they can last for many years and produce more fruits every season.

The fruit garden project is a great way to help the people who live in poverty and hunger. It gives them a source of nutrition and income that they can rely on. It also gives them a sense of dignity and empowerment that they can manage their own resources and livelihoods. It also gives them a chance to improve their skills and knowledge in agriculture and business.

The fruit garden project is also a great way to earn rewards from Allah for ourselves and our loved ones. It is a form of Sadaqah Jariyah, which means that we will continue to receive blessings from Allah for as long as the fruit trees are alive and benefiting others. It is also a way to show our gratitude to Allah for all the blessings He has given us in this life. It is also a way to follow the example of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), who said: “If any Muslim plants any plant and a human being or an animal eats of it, he will be rewarded as if he had given that much in charity.” (Sahih al-Bukhari)

We have planted many fruit trees in different countries, such as Kenya, Somalia, Pakistan, Yemen, and others. We have seen the positive impact of these trees on the lives of the people and the environment. We have received many testimonials from the beneficiaries who have expressed their happiness and appreciation for our work.

We hope that you like these pictures and see how beautiful and fruitful these gardens are.

The Water Well Project
Another example of our projects is the water well project. This project involves digging wells in areas where there is a shortage of clean water. The wells provide access to safe and pure water for drinking, cooking, washing and irrigation. The wells also prevent diseases and infections that are caused by contaminated water. The wells are a lifeline for the people who depend on them for their daily needs.

The water well project is a vital way to help the people who suffer from thirst and dehydration. It saves them from walking long distances to fetch water from unsafe sources. It reduces their risk of getting sick or dying from waterborne illnesses. It improves their health and hygiene conditions. It also increases their productivity and efficiency in their work and education.

Our Budget And How We Manage It
We want you to know that we are very transparent and accountable in our work. We provide all these items in the project reports to the respected donors. We tell you how much each project costs, how many people benefit from it, how long it takes to complete it, and what challenges we face along the way. We also show you pictures and videos of the project sites and the beneficiaries.

We also want you to know that we are very careful and efficient in managing our budget. We try to minimize our expenses and maximize our impact. We use local resources and labor as much as possible. We also collaborate with other organizations and partners who share our goals and values.

Sometimes, our projects have a limited budget and this project can be more or less than the budget in practice. This depends on various factors, such as the size of the project, the location of the project, the availability of materials and equipment, the exchange rate of currencies, and so on.

If the projects have spent an amount less than the considered budget, the surplus of this amount is stored for the future project of the same type of project. For example, if we have some extra money left from a fruit garden project, we will use it for another fruit garden project in another area or country. This way, we can help more people with the same kind of project.

If the projects have spent more than the considered budget, the difference in the lack of budget will be paid from charity and other donations. For example, if we need more money for a water well project, we will use some of our general funds or donations from other sources to cover the gap. This way, we can ensure that the project is completed without any delay or compromise.

We hope that this article has given you some insight into our work and our projects. We hope that you will support us with your prayers, your donations, your feedback, and your suggestions. We hope that you will join us in our journey of making a positive difference in this world.

Thank you for reading this article. May Allah bless you and reward you for your generosity and kindness.

Peace be upon you.

Satoshi is the smallest unit of Bitcoin, the most popular and widely used cryptocurrency in the world. It is named after Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious person or group who created Bitcoin in 2008. One Satoshi is equal to 0.00000001 Bitcoin, which means that one Bitcoin is equal to 100 million Satoshi. You can think of Satoshi as the pennies or cents of Bitcoin, allowing you to make transactions with very small amounts of money.

Why do we need Satoshi? Well, because Bitcoin is a digital currency that has a limited supply of 21 million coins, its price can fluctuate significantly depending on the market demand and supply. As of today, one Bitcoin is worth about $47,000, which makes it very expensive for most people to buy or use. Imagine if you wanted to buy a cup of coffee with Bitcoin, you would have to pay 0.0002 Bitcoin, which is not very convenient or practical. That’s why we have Satoshi, which allows us to use fractions of Bitcoin for everyday purchases and transactions.

How do we convert Satoshi to Bitcoin and vice versa? The conversion is very simple and straightforward. All you have to do is divide or multiply by 100 million. For example, if you have 10,000 Satoshi and you want to know how much Bitcoin that is, you just divide 10,000 by 100 million and you get 0.0001 Bitcoin. Conversely, if you have 0.01 Bitcoin and you want to know how many Satoshi that is, you just multiply 0.01 by 100 million and you get 1 million Satoshi.

How do we donate based on Satoshi? Donating based on Satoshi is also very easy and beneficial for both the donor and the recipient. As a donor, you can choose how much Satoshi you want to donate according to your budget and preference. You can donate as little as 1 Satoshi or as much as you want. As a recipient, you can receive donations from many people around the world who support your cause and mission. You can also convert your donations from Satoshi to your local currency or use them directly for your charitable activities.

Donating based on Satoshi is also compatible with the principles of Islamic finance and charity. As Muslims, we are encouraged to give Zakat (obligatory charity) and Sadaqah (voluntary charity) to help the poor and needy, as well as to purify our wealth and souls. We are also forbidden from dealing with interest (Riba), gambling (Maisir), uncertainty (Gharar), and unethical transactions. Cryptocurrency such as Bitcoin and its unit Satoshi can be a good alternative to conventional money that may involve these prohibited elements.

Therefore, we need to be careful and prudent when using cryptocurrency for charity purposes. We need to do our research and due diligence before choosing a reliable and trustworthy platform or organization that accepts cryptocurrency donations. We need to check their reputation, track record, policies, procedures, fees, and compliance with Shariah principles. We need to also monitor the market trends and fluctuations of cryptocurrency prices and exchange rates. We need to also consult with qualified scholars and experts who can guide us on the Islamic rulings and opinions regarding cryptocurrency.

I hope this article has given you some insights and understanding about Satoshi and Bitcoin and how they can be used for charity purposes. I also hope that you will continue to support our Islamic charity institution with your generous donations and prayers. May Allah reward you for your kindness and generosity. Thank you for reading this article and please share it with others who may benefit from it. Peace be upon you.
