Luminous quotes

O people, listen, understand, and know that God has servants who are neither prophets nor martyrs. The prophets and martyrs envy them for their gatherings and their closeness to God Almighty. They are people from the people’s exiles and the discords of the tribes. They were not related to close relatives. They loved each other for the sake of God’s majesty and were close to one another in it. They visited one another in it and were mutual in it. God will create for them on the Day of Resurrection podiums of light and they will sit on them, and their clothes will be light and their faces will be light. They will not be afraid. If people are afraid and do not panic, if people are terrified, then those are the saints of God upon whom there is no fear nor do they grieve

O you who have believed, if you obey those who disbelieve, they will turn you back on your heels and you will turn back losers. Rather, God is your Master, and He is the Best of Helpers.

O people, no one swore in pre-Islamic times, for Islam only increased his distress. There is no swearing in Islam, and the Muslims have a hand on those other than them. Their blood will be rewarded. The lowest of them will be punished and the furthest of them will be returned to them. Their companies will be returned to their seat. A believer will not be killed for an infidel. The blood money of an infidel is half the blood money of a Muslim. There is no jihad or junub. Their alms are not taken except in their homes.

O people, immigrate and adhere to Islam, for migration does not cease as long as jihad continues

O people, fear God. By God, if a man was one of the believers before you, a saw would be placed on his head and he would cut in two pieces what apostates from his religion. Fear God, for God Almighty is the Conqueror and Maker of you.

God has not given anyone a greater gift than patience, and patience is all good

The Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, reached the news

O you who have believed, do not consume your wealth among yourselves unjustly, unless it is a trade with your mutual consent, and do not kill yourselves. Indeed, God has been merciful to you, and whoever does that out of aggression and injustice, We will cast him into Hellfire. And that is easy for God. If you avoid the major sins that you are forbidden, We will atone for you your evil deeds and admit you to a noble entrance.

O people, the time has come for you to desist from God’s limits. Whoever afflicts any of this filth should cover himself with God’s cover, for whoever We change his page, we will punish him with the Book of God.

And those who do not call upon another god with God, and do not kill the soul that God has forbidden except by right, and do not commit adultery

O people, those before you were destroyed because if the noble among them stole, they would leave him, and if the weak among them stole, they would impose punishment on him. By God, if Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad, had stolen, her hand would have been cut off.

O you who have believed, do not take the unbelievers as allies instead of the believers. Do you want to give God clear authority over you?

O people, ask God for well-being, for no one has been given certainty like certainty after well-being, nor more severe than doubt after disbelief. You must be truthful, for it guides to righteousness, while they are in Paradise, and beware of lying, for it guides to immorality, while they are in Hell.

O people, the Messenger has come to you with the truth from your Lord, so believe, that is better for you. But if you disbelieve, then to God belongs whatever is in the heavens and the earth, and God is All-Knowing, All-Wise.

O people, do you know what is like me and like you? They said, “God and His Messenger know best.” He said, “My likeness and your likeness are like a people who feared an enemy coming to them, so they sent a man to find out for their family. While they were like that, he saw the enemy and came to warn them. He feared that the enemy would overtake him before he warned his people, so they fell in love with his garment. O people, you came. O people, you came three times.”

The Hour and I were sent like these two, and he joined his index and middle fingers

Two qualities that do not combine in a believer are miserliness and bad character

The servant says: “My wealth,” but his wealth belongs only to what he ate and consumed it, or wore and it wore out, or gave in charity and passed away, or anything else, so he goes and leaves it to the people.

Previously, one hundred thousand dirhams. A man said: How is that, O Messenger of God? He said: A man with a lot of money took one hundred thousand from his wealth and gave it in charity, and a man who only had two dirhams took one of them and gave it in charity.

Say, “My Lord extends sustenance to whomever He wills among His servants and decrees for Him.” And whatever you spend, He will replace it

Spend, son of Adam I spend on you

Whoever gives in charity the equivalent of a date from good earnings, and only good things ascend to God, God will accept it with His right hand and then raise it for its owner, just as one of you raises a camel until it becomes like a mountain.

Even a bite or a date will come on the Day of Resurrection like a great mountain

Yes, the questioners carry our supplies to the afterlife without payment until they place them in the scales in the hands of God Almighty.

I do not know a grain weighing as much as the mountains of the world except from charity

O you who have believed, spend from what We have provided for you before a day comes in which there will be no trade, friendship, or intercession, and the disbelievers are the wrongdoers.

O Messenger of God, which charity is the greatest? He said: You are charity and you are healthy. You are stingy, you fear poverty, you hope to survive, and you do not hesitate until you reach the throat. You said to so-and-so and so-and-so, and it was to so-and-so.

Deeds show off, so charity says, “I prefer you.”

Prayer is the pillar of Islam, jihad is the hump of work, charity is a wonderful thing, charity is a wonderful thing, and charity is a wonderful thing.

قام أبو طلحة فقال: يا رسول الله إن الله يقول لن تنال البر حتى تنفقوا مما تحبون وإن أحب أموالي إلي بيرحى وإنها صدقة لله أرجو برها وذخرها عند الله فضعها يا رسول الله حيث أراك الله. قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: بخ ذلك مال رابح وقد سمعت ما قلت وإني أرى أن تجعلها في الأقربين. قال أبو طلحة: أفعل يا رسول الله.

أمر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم بالصدقة فقال رجل يا رسول الله عندي دي نار فقال تصدق به على نفسك قال عندي آخر قال تصدق به على ولدك قال عندي آخر قال تصدق به على زوجتك أو قال زوجك قال عندي آخر قال تصدق به على خادمك قال عندي آخر قال أنت أبصر

If a Muslim spends money on his family while expecting it, it is charity for him

وأل أحنف في يد رجل دره من فقال قال لمن هذا قال لي قال ليس هو لك حتى تخرجه في أجر أو اكتساب شكر وتمثل أنت للمال إذا أمسكته وإذا أنفقته فالمال لك

قال الشعبي رحمه الله تعالى من لم ير نفسه إلى ثواب الصدقة أحوج من الفقير إلى صدقته فقد أبطل صدقته وضرب بها وجهه أحيانا

سبعةٌ يُظِلُّهُمُ الله تعالى في ظِلِّهِ يَوْمَ لا ظِلَّ إِلَّا ظِلُّهُ وذكر منهم رجلاً تصدق بصدقه فأخفاها حتى لا تعلم شماله ما تنفق يمينه

صلة الرحم تزيد في العمر وصدقة السر تطفئ غضباً رب

آمنوا بالله ورسوله وأنفقوا مما جعلكم مستخلفين فيه فالذين آمنوا منكم وأنفقوا لهم أجر كبير

Every person is in the shadow of his charity until he separates the people, or he said, judges between the people

فيقال له إن هذا ينتن ثيابك فيقول أما إني لم أجد في البيت شيئا أتصدق به غيره

ظل المؤمن يوم القيامة صدقته

ثلاثة أقسم عليهم وأوحدثكم حديثا فاحفظوه قال ما نقص مال عبد من صدقه ولا ظلم عبد مظلمة فصبر عليها إلا زاده الله عزا ولا فتح عبد باب مسأله إلا فتح الله عليه باب فقر

يا رسول الله أي الصدقة أفضل قال جهد المقل وابدأ بمن تعول

A dirham preceded one hundred thousand dirhams. They said: How did he say: A man had two dirhams, so he gave one of them in charity, and a man went to show his money and took from him one hundred thousand dirhams, so he gave it in charity.

God does not accept a prayer without purification or charity from impure things

O Messenger of God, which charity is the greatest reward? He said: You are charity and you are healthy. You are stingy, you fear poverty and hope for wealth, and you do not give up until you reach the throat. You said to so-and-so and such-and-such, and it was to so-and-so.

جهد المقل وابدأ بمن تعول

On the scattering of the womb of Al-Kashah

أَفْضَلُ الصَّدَقَةُ أَوْ خَيْرُ الصَّدَقَةُ عَنْ ظَهْرِ غِنَاءٌ وَالْيَدُ الْعُلْيَاءُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ الْيَدِ السُّفْلَاءُ وَابْدَأْ بِمَنْ تَعُولُ

افضل دينار ينفقه الرجل دينار ينفقه على عياله و دينار ينفقه الرجل على دابته في سبيل الله و دينار ينفقه على أصحابه في سبيل الله

He started with the children, and what man is greater in reward than a man who spends on small children, making them free, or who God benefits them with and enriches them with?

A dinar you spent for the sake of God And a dinar I spent on his neck And a dinar that I gave in charity to a poor person And a dinar that you spent on your family The greatest of them is the reward What you spent on your family

No charity diminishes any wealth, and God never increases a servant with pardon except that he is exalted, and no one humbles himself before God except that God exalts him.

ثلاثة أقسم عليهم وأوحدثكم حديثاً فاحفظوه قال ما نقص مال عبد من صدقة ولا ظلم عبد مظلمة فصبر عليها إلا زاده الله عزا ولا فتح عبد باب مسأله إلا فتح الله عليه باب فقر أو كلمة نحوها

O Ka'b Ibn Ajrah, flesh and blood that grew on the surface of Hell will not enter Paradise. O Ka'b Ibn Ajrah, people are going to redeem themselves, so they will liberate it, and they are going to destroy it. O Ka'b Ibn Ajra, prayer is an offering, charity is proof, fasting is a shield, and charity extinguishes sin just as ice goes away from the sky.

إن صدقة السر تطفئ غضباً رب تبارك وتعالى

كل امرء في ظل صدقته حتى يفصل بين الناس أو قال يحكم بين الناس

Charity extinguishes the heat of the graves from its recipients, but the believer will receive shade on the Day of Resurrection in the shade of his charity

ما من ذي رحم يأتي ذا رحمه يسأله فضلاً أعطاه الله إياه فيبخل عليه إلا أخرج الله له يوم القيامة من جهنم حيه يقال لها شجاع يتلمض فيطوّق به

Every loan is a charity

من أقرض مسلماً درهماً مرتين كان له كأجل صدقة مرة
