THE BEAUTY OF CHARITY
By Ahmed Al-Ali, Kuwait
In the name of God, the almighty

Part 4.1 - CHARITY INCREASES SUSTENANCE AND PROTECTS WEALTH

Cause and effect, are from the wisdom of Allah. He has connected the cause and effect of things. For example, the person who uses good methods in planting his crops, will get a good harvest. Just the same way a person who eats and drinks healthily will have good health.

Allah too has linked spiritual and metaphysical causes to spiritual results. Allah states that the one who is beneficial to his relatives will have an increase in his life span. Also Allah states that giving charity removes evil. We human beings wonder how the cause and effect is connected, and what is the wisdom behind the incidences in life? Some cause and effects are easy to explain and the wisdom behind them is clear. On the other hand some of these phenomena's are hard to explain. However Islam stresses that giving charity increases sustenance. Here are a few traditions that stress on this fact.

The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.w.) says: "Attract sustenance by giving charity". (BIHAR VOL 74 PAGE 392)

Abu Abdillah (a.s.) says: "Allah gives help to person equal in quantity to the charity a person gives". (BIHAR VOL 76 PAGE 311)

Imam Jaffer Sadiq (a.s.) says that: "Everything has a key, and the key to sustenance is charity". (BIHAR VOL 47 PAGE 38)

Here below are some real life events which will illustrate these facts.
