Sadqay ka Inaam | The Reward of Giving Sadaqah
Sayyiduna Shaykh ‘Abdul Haq Muhaddis Dihlvi عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الۡـقَـوِی has stated in Ashi’a-tul-Lam’aat: Although, materially the entire possession brought in by Sayyiduna Abu Bakr Siddeeq رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ was far less as compared to the half possession given by Sayyiduna ‘Umar Farooq رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ but, in fact, status-wise it was very high. (Ashi’a-tul-Lam’aat, vol. 4, pp. 651)
Does Sadaqah reduce wealth?
Dear Islami brothers! Spending in the way of Allah, causes an increase in wealth, not a decrease as it is stated in blessed Hadees: ‘﴿مَا نَقَصَتۡ صَدَقَةٌ مِّنۡ مَّالٍ﴾’ i.e., Sadaqah does not cause reduction in wealth. (Sahih Muslim, pp. 1397, Hadees 2588/69)
Commenting on aforementioned blessed Hadees, the renowned commentator, Hakeem-ul-Ummat, Mufti Ahmad Yar Khan عَـلَيْهِ رَحْـمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ الْـحَـنَّان has stated: The one, who pays Zakah, will find his Zakah increasing each year. It is a fact that the farmer who disperses all his grain over the field, apparently he returns with empty sacks of grain but in fact, he fills them in abundance. However, the grains stockpiled in sacks at homes deteriorate due to attack by weevils or mice etc. Or it implies that the wealth spent as a Sadaqah in the way of Allah will result in increasing اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ, and continue growing. When you keep filling up a well, the volume will keep on increasing.
(Mirat-ul-Manajih, vol. 3, pp. 93)
