In the name of Allah, Most Merciful, Bestower of Mercy All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the worlds.

All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah and that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger.

This Hadith clearly indicates that giving food is one of the greatest deeds. In another one of the Prophet’s Hadiths, a man asks him of the best Islamic traits. And the Prophet said:Imam An-Nakha’i has commented on another verse in the Qur’an saying that:Abu Musa Al-Ash‘ari reported the Prophet saying that:Imam Muhammad Ibn Al-Munkadir has said that:“Feeding food to the hungry and speaking kind words to others takes you to paradise.

In this respect, it is a duty of Muslims to not just offer food to other fellow human beings but also to the other living creatures including the birds and animals. And keeping all of this in mind, it is important that we all work hard and do our best to feed the poor as well as the needy in our societies. Moreover, it is also important that we show love, respect and gratitude to our neighbours by feeding and sharing food with them.

In addition to the indisputable benefits for those receiving charity, Islam also highlights the spiritual to give your wealth away selflessly to remember that every blessing they have in this life comes from Allah the Almighty. We must not hoard our wealth and blessings but instead recognise that He wishes for us to be compassionate and share our provisions with others without pride. Allah the Most High says:[Qur’an, 2:262]“Recognised right, for the needy and deprived” over our wealth.

My beloved people, wallahi, charity or Sadaqah is something that is encouraged every day. Let our governments at all levels, and the rich and wealthy among us fear Allah and help the poor and the needy, so that Allah Almighty can use it to protect us, protect our family and protect our dear country from all kind of fitnah and tribulations.“There is no day in which the servant rise in the morning except that two angels descend; one of them says, ‘O Allah! Compensate the one who spends.
