Sadaqah in the Quran

“Those who spend their wealth in charity day and night, secretly and openly—their reward is with their Lord, and there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve.” (Qur’an 2: 274)

What Is Sadaqah?

  • Sadaqah is a voluntary form of charity that we, as Muslims, give unconditionally to help those who need it most and relinquish our sins. Sadaqah charity is given for the love of Allah (SWT) and out of the goodness of our hearts. “By no means shall you attain righteousness unless you give freely of that which you love, and whatever you give, Allah knows it well.” [Qur’an 3:92] This verse highlights a very essential principle for Muslims. We cannot attain true and genuine righteousness until we prefer others over ourselves. And the most powerful method of preferring others is by parting from our wealth for the sake of others.
  • Prophet Muhammed (saw) was known to be ‘more generous than the blowing wind’. [Bukhari]. He (saw) would give all that he had to the poor and even let himself go hungry to feed someone in need. Sadaqah has an unusual power that affects the quality of life directly. Whenever we are in difficult situations in life, it is recommended by the Holy Prophet (SAW) to give Sadaqah. It is proven that Sadaqah removes difficulties. Any calamity bothering us can be wiped off by giving charity. The Quran and Sunnah repeatedly emphasise the importance of giving sadaqah regularly and Allah has promised many benefits to the person who does.

Sadaqah & Sadaqah Jariyah

Sadaqah is the act of giving short-term charity, such as donating a food pack for a needy family which will see them through in the short term. Sadaqah Jariyah is the act of giving long-term charity, such as donating a water well to a community that lacks access to clean water which will support them for months and years to come. Sadaqah Jariyah is an ongoing form of charity that has long-lasting effects that benefit people on multiple occasions. It is one of the most rewarding acts we can do in our lives as the benefits of giving this type of charity can be reaped in this lifetime and long after we have passed. The Prophet pbuh said: When a person dies, all their deeds end except three: a continuing charity, beneficial knowledge and a child who prays for them – Sahih Muslim. Therefore, many Muslims are eager to give charity which will continue to have benefit to people after their death, and continue to earn them reward.

The Power of Sadaqah

The benefits of Sadaqah in Islam are boundless. As a mercy to humanity, Allah (SWT) has given us bountiful opportunities to gain reward for every good act that is made in order to benefit the world and all in it, for His (SWT) sake. “Verily those who give Sadaqah, men and women, and lend Allah a goody loan, it shall be increased manifold, and theirs shall be an honorable good reward.” (Quran – 57:18)

In a famous Hadith narrated by Abu Huraira reported:

“The Messenger of Allah, (peace be upon him), said, “Charity does not decrease wealth, no one forgives another but that Allah increases his honour, and no one humbles himself for the sake of Allah but that Allah raises his status.” (Muslim)

Many scholars interpret this to describe the way Allah (SWT) restores wealth and even increases it in some way when one gives from what he loves for His (SWT)’s sake.
