It's Givers' Day

 *It's Givers' Day*

------------------

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

The day of Friday is also called: ‘Yawmul Mazid’; the day of extras/increases. 📚(Refer: Zadul Ma’ad, vol. 1 pg.397 and Fathul Bari, before Hadith: 876)

Today been Friday, is a special day for shopping for your Hearafter which begin immediately you are placed in your grave.

This reminds me,

"Once there was a pious monk who had dedicated himself to the worship of Allah for seventy years, and only left his monastery for one day. Unfortunately, Shaitan succeeded in tempting him towards a beautiful woman, and he spent seven days and night with her. He then realised his error and left her, repenting to Allah, crying, repenting.. With every step he took he prayed and prostrated to Allah, crying asking for forgiveness.. He was on that journey to a town he don't know anyone.. One night, he sought refuge close to a shop where there were twelve (12) destitute men. He was utterly exhausted and laid down amongst them.. It so happened that a monk in the town would send twelve loaves of bread to these men each night. That night, the servant arrived with the bread and began distributing one to each person. When he reached the repentant man, he considered him to be one of the destitute men and handed him a loaf as well.

After he had completed, the one who did not receive his loaf called out, "Why did you not give me a loaf tonight?"

The servant replied, "Do you think I have ignored you? Go on, ask whether I have accidentally given any of your companions two loaves."

But, they all replied that none of them had received more than one.

Angrily, the servant said to him, "By Allah, I will not give you anything tonight?"

The repentant man realised what had happened and handed the loaf he had given over to the man who did not receive his share for the night due to his presence. That night, he passed away. His seventy years of worship were weighed, but the seven nights he had spent in sin with the woman outweighed his worship. His noble act of giving the loaf of bread away at night was weighted and this tilted the pan in his favour." 📚 Source: Musnad Ibn Abi Shaybah - Hadith No 33523 - Graded authentic by Albani

My people!

You and I have sinned and still sinning against Allah (swt). It's good we remember that, sometimes, our verbal repentance doesn't significantly weight in the side of Allah (swt) like giving out something we desperately love FISSABILILLAH since no activities of this religion can go well without Muslim's financial support.

Therefore,

I remind myself and you to prepare to be dropping something (reasonable) EVERYDAY inside Fissabilillah box in any masjid where we pray REGULARLY especially today (Friday) - for the running of the activities of the masjid & for the propagation of the religion of Allah in general.

We believe this worldly life is a test, hence the reason for so many trials and temptations. And this test include finding ourselves inside bad economy, to see those who will hide under the canopy of hash economy and COMPLETELY abandon act of charity.

Sure!

"The mosques of Allah shall be visited and maintained by such as believe in Allah and the Last Day, establish regular prayers, and give regular charity,..". 📚At-Taubah 9:18
