Story
I believe in mercy. I believe that the message revealed to our beloved Prophet PBUH was nothing other than a mercy to mankind.
I have started volunteering with the Orphans Care Bureau in 2003 (Egypt) and since then nothing else in this life can bring joy to my heart other than the smile on the faces of these kids and families. We strive to help widows and orphans who lost all sources of support and are in dire need.
My target is to raise £ 5,000 to be spent over a year.
Some of the orphans are university students who have a promising future ahead of them and they may not be able to complete their course of study as they don't have other sources of income.
please, help us make those students graduate and reach their goals. Help us take care of and empower a widow who lost all means of support
"Who is he that will loan to Allah a beautiful loan which Allah will double unto his credit and multiply it many times?’"
It may be hard for us to give Sadaqah when we are barely able to make ends meet. However, it is reported in Sahih Muslim that the Prophet ṣallallāhu 'alayhi wa sallam (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said:
Charity does not decrease the wealth and the servant who forgives, Allah adds to his respect; and the one who shows humility, Allah elevates him in the estimation (of the people).”
and
”There is not a day in which the obedient slaves rise in the morning except that two angels descend, and one of them says: ‘O Allaah! Compensate the one who spends.’ The other angel says: ‘O Allaah! Destroy the wealth of the one who is niggardly.”
If we truly believe and apply these hadiths, we will come to learn that we can never lose from giving Sadaqah, but instead, we gain immensely from it.
