Be Generous
If you are generous to others, Allah will be generous to you. Value the bounty that has been given to you and
try your utmost to act in accordance with the same generosity and give out from that which you have been
blessed with.
A man once asked the Prophet sallallahu alaihe wassallam for something in charity and the Prophet sallallahu
alaihe wassallam gave him a flock of sheep. When the man returned to his people he said, ‘O my people,
convert to Islam, because Muhammad gives [in charity] as a man who does not fear poverty.’
