You Will Not Attain Righteousness Until You Spend From What You Love by AbuAbdirrahmaan: 12:12am On Mar 12 |
True righteousness comes when we give from what we love most, not just from what is convenient. Allah says: 📖 "You will not attain righteousness until you spend from what you love." (Quran 3:92) ✨ The Virtue of Giving Generously: 1️⃣ Give from the Best of Your Wealth – Allah commands believers to give quality charity, not leftovers or items they wouldn't accept themselves. 📖 “Do not aim toward the defective therefrom, spending [from that], while you would not take it [yourself] except with closed eyes.” (Quran 2:267) 2️⃣ The Example of Abu Talhah (RA) – He owned Bayruha, a beloved garden facing the Prophet’s ﷺ mosque. Upon hearing the verse, he immediately donated it for Allah’s sake. 3️⃣ Charity to Relatives is Doubly Rewarded – The Prophet ﷺ said: "Charity given to the poor is charity, and charity given to a poor relative is both charity and maintaining ties." 4️⃣ Giving to Allah is an Investment – Abu Dahdah (RA) once asked: "O Messenger of Allah, does Allah want a loan from us?" When the Prophet ﷺ confirmed, he donated his entire garden with 600 palm trees! 5️⃣ Ibn Umar's Practice (RA) – Whenever he loved something from his wealth and his soul was attached to it, he would give it in charity based on Allah’s words: 📖 "You will not attain righteousness until you spend from what you love." 6️⃣ Don’t Delay Charity – The Prophet ﷺ rushed to distribute some gold after prayer, saying: "I disliked that it should stay with us through the night, so I ordered it to be distributed." 📌 Key Lessons: ✅ Give from what you love, not what is leftover. ✅ Support needy family members first. ✅ Spend in charity before it's too late. 🤲 O Allah, make us among those who give generously, seeking Your pleasure. Accept our charity and grant us righteousness. Aameen! 💬 What is something you love that you can give for the sake of Allah? Let’s reflect together! |

Muslims eat breakfast and join their lunch to dinner. Please what kind of fasting is that? |
