properly fulfilling the rights of fasting!’ In his reply he said, ‘No.’ Then he said, ‘By Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! I have never seen giving anything away to any needy or beggar except Zakāĥ or spending his money in the path of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. As for Zakāĥ, it is given by every good or bad person.’ The complainant said, ‘Yā Rasūlallāĥ صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم! Please ask him if he has ever witnessed me doing carelessness in giving Zakāĥ or evading it.’ He said, ‘No.’ The Beloved Rasūl صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, (to the person bearing malice), ‘قُمۡ اِنۡ اَدۡرِيۡ لَعَلَّهٗ خَيۡرٌ مِنۡكَ’ Stand up! I do not know perhaps he is better than you.

The Beloved and Blessed Prophet صَلَّى
اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘On the Day of Judgement
a person will be brought for accountability, he will have an assumption that
there are no sins in his book of deeds. He will then be questioned by Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, ‘Did you have friendship
with My friends?’ He would say, ‘O Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! You are the Supreme
Self-Sufficient of people.’ The Rabb-e-‘Aẓīm
عَزَّوَجَلَّ will say, ‘Did you bear
hatred against my enemies?’ He would say, ‘O the Absolute Ruler Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ! I did not like enmity
between me and anyone.’ Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ will
say, ‘لَا
يَنَالُ رَحۡمَتِيۡ مَنۡ لَمۡ يُوَالِ اَوۡلِيَائِيۡ وَيُعَادِيۡ اَعۡدَائِيۡ’ i.e., He will not be
able to find My Raḥmaĥ
(blessings), who did not have friendship with My friends and bear hatred
towards My foes. (Al-Mu’jam-ul-Kabīr, vol. 22, pp. 59, Ḥadīš 140)
