I give in sadaaqah out of duty and due to being helped by so many people when I was in trouble about 15 years ago.

A man came and asked the Sheikh, "Can I make sadaqah with the intention of getting more money in return?" The Sheikh replied by saying that one can make the intention of getting reward in this world or in the Hereafter when giving out sadaqah. Soon afterward, the man gave the Sheikh an envelop with a pile of hundred dollars in it. The Sheikh asked the man, "Does this have anything to do with the question you asked about Sadaqah the other day?" The man replied, "Whenever my business was going downhill, the more I gave away the quicker my business returned." Indeed, Allah treat us the same way we treat our bank accounts. When we give generously without counting, Allah also gives us generously without counting. If we constantly count to the pennies, Allah does the same to us. A true Muslim genuinely believes that Allah is the creator of the Heaven and the Earth, then why do we have to have any doubts on Allah's words? -- Adapted from shaikh speech

Assalam Aleikum, I delivered the check and cash (a total of $1500) to a widow and her 7 children today. She burst into tears and became speechless when I informed her over the phone before I went. I showed them the posts regarding their situation and the donation results on HalfDate.com when I was there.

I had some money in my bank account, I was hoping to purchase some books for myself but I also felt like giving in charity (sadaqah jariyah). There was a particular Dawah cause I was a part of, I wanted to donate something to them. At that moment I was more eager to purchase books for myself, however I convinced myself, fighting the greed that was in my chest, to give to the cause and told myself that insha'Allah I will see the rewards with Allah. I donated, and soon after I ended up with more money than I had before to purchase books! Allah is Great! The reward of the good-doers is never lost.

Was walking down a street when I saw a group of homeless people. I paused for a while, made dua for Allah to bless them and give thems strength. Amin. A deed of sadaqah, need not always be monetary or materialistic in nature, even the small things count.

There is this brother, let's call him Abdullah, who lent $240 to a needy brother and when the brother wanted to return the money, Abdullah told him, "It's okay, and if you insist I won't talk to you again." Then years later, Abdullah was in need and a brother lent him more than 10 thousands USD. Abdullah kept paying in installment until the brother wanted to leave the country so asked him what's the outstanding balance, Abdullah said it's $2400, and he can pay it all at once. The brother replied, "It's okay, and if you insist I won't talk to you again." (Illinois, USA)

“Alhamdolilah I’m a student and I’m broke, but I still managed to donate . Many times we hesitate to donate even a couple of bucks, but don’t mind getting our twice-a-day-$3 fix at Starbucks.” -mt
