Sadqay ka Inaam | The Reward of Giving Sadaqah
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah رَضِىَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ has narrated, the most Revered and Renowned Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: There were three people in Bani Israel. One suffering from vitiligo [a disease that causes loss of skin pigmentation], the second was a bald-headed and the third one was blind. Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ decided to test them. He عَزَّوَجَلَّ sent an angel (in guise of human) who first went to the person suffering from vitiligo and asked, ‘Which thing do you like the most?’ He replied, ‘I like a beautiful colour and a fine skin and removal of that disease which makes me detestable in the eyes of people.’ When the angel passed his hand across his body, his illness was no more and he was conferred upon beautiful colour and beautiful skin. Angel asked him again, ‘Which wealth you like the most?’ He replied, ‘I like female-camel a lot’. He was provided with a ten-month pregnant she-camel and the angel prayed for him, ‘May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bless you with abundance.’
Then the angel came to the bald person and asked him, ‘What thing you like the most?’ He replied, ‘I like beautiful hair and that thing may be removed from me because of which people hate me.’ The angel passed his hand across his head and removed that thing from him because of which people hated him then he was bestowed upon beautiful hair. Angel asked, ‘Which wealth you like the most?’ He replied, ‘I like cow a lot.’ He was provided with a pregnant cow. The angel prayed for him, ‘May Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ bless you with abundance.’
