BUILD MASJIDS For the L❤️VE OF ALLAH

In Islam, Sadaqah refers to a voluntary act of charity performed with the sole purpose of pleasing Allah (swt) and without expecting a substitute in return. In Arabic, the word ‘Sadaqah’ literally means ‘righteousness’ and stems from the root word ‘sidq’, which means sincerity; implying that Sadaqah is the sincerity of faith and a righteous behaviour that leads to a healthy and balanced society.

Prophet Muhammed (saw) was known to be ‘more generous than the blowing wind’. [Bukhari]. He (saw) would give all that he had to the poor and even let himself go hungry to feed someone in need. He (saw) had an impeccable character and there is wisdom and immense reward in following his exemplary behaviour.

The Quran and Sunnah repeatedly emphasise the importance of giving and Allah has promised many benefits to the person who does. Here are the reasons why you should be giving sadaqah on a regular basis.

Sadaqah will fulfil your needs

 It is a natural human instinct to want to further our own interests in life and this sometimes comes at the cost of being less generous with our wealth to save for our own futures. However, it’s important to remember that we don’t take care of our own needs – Allah does.
