PRAYER
FOR THOSE WHO SPEND THEIR WEALTH ON OTHERS
For
those who spend on others from what Allah Ta’alah has given them, the angel
prays, “O’ Allah! Please give the person who spends his wealth on others, who
does Sadaqah (non-obligatory charity) and Khairat, and who treats people well,
the reward for what he spends on others, in this world.”
Superficially
it looks like that the person who spends his wealth on others, is losing money,
because he is either giving his wealth to others, or is foregoing what others
are due to return to him. However, in reality the money that is going is not
being lost, it brings Barakah (blessing) from Allah Ta’alah, and Allah Ta’alah
often rewards such a person in this world. No one has ever become poor because
they did too much Sadaqah and Khairat, or they gave relaxation to others in
their financial transactions. That is why it is said in the Hadith that Allah
Ta’alah rewards such a person both in this world and the Hereafter.
