Every single day, two angels show up. One\u2019s rooting for the givers, saying, <em>\u201cYa Allah, bless this person who spends in charity!\u201d<\/em> The other? Not so much. It\u2019s like, <em>\u201cYa Allah, destroy the one who withholds!\u201d<\/em> Somewhat harsh, right? It\u2019s a wake-up call.<\/p>\n<p>Someone who spends in charity is actually doing business with Allah whom he expects profit it. And the other, we can say that one who spends in charity is giving a loan to Allah, which he will expect to be paid payback. The question now is, will the profit or loan from Allah be the same as what the person spends in charity? Absolutely NO.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1200 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post.png\" alt=\"Spends In Charity\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post.png 1920w, https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/deenminder.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Yellow-and-Orange-Gradient-Kindness-Day-Quotes-Facebook-Post-1536x864.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Allah says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cWho is it that will loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over?\u201d (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:245)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Indeed, the men who practice charity and the women who practice charity and [they who] have loaned Allah a goodly loan \u2013 it will be multiplied for them, and they will have a noble reward.\u00a0 (Q 57:18)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So who wouldn\u2019t want Allah as their business partner now?

The angel will be praying against misers every day. Between prayer and curse, which one will you choose?\u00a0 Allah says in the Quran:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cAnd let not those who withhold what Allah has given them of His bounty think it is better for them. Rather, it is worse for them.\u201d (Surah Aal-E-Imran 3:180)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ever notice how stingy people never seem truly happy? That\u2019s no coincidence. Greed eats away at their soul\u2014and their wallet. You will always see them not contented with what they have and will also complain negatively too much. It is clear that someone receiving curses from the pure creation of Allah, who only worships Allah, won&#8217;t be fully happy.<\/p>\n<p>The angel prays for the destruction of the miserly, one who refuses to spend in charity out of what has been given to them. This prayer is not just a curse but a natural consequence of hoarding wealth, which breeds selfishness, disconnection, and eventually loss. Allah warns:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>\u201cAnd let not those who withhold what Allah has given them of His bounty think it is better for them. Rather, it is worse for them.\u201d (Surah Aal-E-Imran 3:180)<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Acting_on_the_Hadith\"><\/span><strong>Benefits of Acting on the Hadith<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what happens to someone who spends in charity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Means_of_opening_the_door_of_Barakah_blessings\"><\/span><strong>1.

Think about it, every time you give, the angels pray for you that <strong>Allah should repay you!\u00a0<\/strong> How amazing is that? This is like starting your day with blessings from Allah. This is similar to a hadith that Abu Huraira reported:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, \u201cAllah said: Spend in charity, O son of Adam, and I will spend on you.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Muttafaqun Alayhi\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>(authenticity agreed upon) in Sahih Bukhari 5352 and Sahih Muslim 993<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So many people say that as soon as they gave in charity, unexpected blessings started flowing their way.
