Delightful Doors Of Sadaqah. - Abu Hafsat - 09-01-2013
Salaam everyone,
Abu Dhar al-Ghafari, may Allah be pleased with him, said:--"The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said:-'Sadaqah is prescribed for every person every day the sun rises'. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, from what do we give Sadaqah if we do not possess property?' He said: 'The doors of sadaqah are takbir (Allahu Akbar), Subhan Allah, Alhamdulillah, La-ilaha-illallah, Astaghfirullah, enjoining good, forbidding evil, removing thorns, bones and stones from the paths of people, guiding the blind, listening to the deaf and dumb until you understand them, guiding a person to his object of need if you know where it is, hurrying with the strength of your legs to one in sorrow who is appealing for help, and supporting the weak with the strength of your arms. These are all the doors of Sadaqah." [Ahmad]
In the light of this Noble Hadith, one does not need to have financial resources to earn the reward of sadaqah. There are many deeds to qualify as sadaqah with Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. In addition to the above, the following courtesies are also sadaqah if we do them with the intention of pleasing Allah with them:--
1. Administering Justice between 2 people is sadaqah.
2. Assisting a man upon his mount, so that he may ride it is sadaqah.
3. Every step taken toward prayer... the Masjid..is sadaqah.
4. Your smile for your brother is sadaqah.
5. Planting anything from which a person, an animal or anything eats is sadaqah.
