In Islam, ‘Sadaqah’ is voluntary charity, given for the pleasure of Allah (SWT) without expecting anything in return. We know through numerous examples from the life of the Prophet (PBUH) that he gave freely to anyone in need. He was described as being ‘more generous than the blowing wind.’ (Bukhari). His generosity was compared to the wind because of its sustained blowing, which is a mercy that touches all in its path, indicating that the Prophet’s (PBUH) generosity was all-encompassing.
Our Prophet (PBUH) would give charity regularly and he advised us to do the same. We also know that in Islam, the best acts are those which are performed consistently. The Prophet (PBUH) said:
Do you want to make your regular charity giving even better? Donating to Akhuwat, will attract rewards, benefit our recipients and power up your contribution. Yes, your Sadaqah or Zakat will become exponentially rewarding in the long term too! Here’s how…
We use your donations to grant small interest-free loans to poor people who cannot access loans through regular financial institutions or banks. When these loans are repaid, they are reinvested into our fund pool and loaned out again to new borrowers. This process is repeated, again and again. So, your initial contribution will be helping several people and you will earn multiple rewards for your one-off donation. To learn more about Akhuwat Islamic Microfinance click here.
