Hadees On Charity in Islam - Part 3

Hadith 21, 22: Abdullah bin Imam in ‘Zawaidul Musnad’, and Bazaar and Hakim in ‘Mustadrick’ narrate from Amirul Momineen Ali (Karam Allahu Ta’ala Wajhahu) and likewise Hakim narrates from Aqba bin Aamir (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sall Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “One who wishes to live long and to increase his livelihood and to prevent a bad death, should fear Allah, strengthen relationships and treat relatives well.”

Hadith 23: Tabrani narrates from Amro bin Sahal (Radi Allahu Ta’ ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sall Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Good behaviour to near relatives is the increaser of wealth, love and life.”

Hadith 24: Qazai narrates from Ibn Masood (Radi Allahu one to you.”

Hadith 25: Tabrani narrates from Abu Bakr (Radi Aliahu Ta’ ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sail Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Undoubtedly kindness to relations causes immediate reward; even if the members of the family are sinful still their wealth is increased and they are increased in numbers due to kindness to each other.”

This is more in another Hadith: “Any family that is not one in which members are kind towards one another becomes poor.”

Hadith 26: Imam Ahrnad and Baihaqi in ‘Sahib Al Iman” narrate from Ummul Momineen Ayisha Siddiqa (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anha) that the Holy Prophet (Sail Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Kindness towards relations, good manners and good behaviour to neighbours increase the population of towns and cause lives to be long.”

Hadith 27: Hakim narrates in ‘Mustadrick’ from Anas (Radi Allahu Ta’ ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sail Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Acts of good behaviour safeguard you from evil deaths, calamities and destruction and those who are kind in this World will be the ones who do well in the Hereafter.”

Hadith 28: Tabrani narrates in ‘Ausat’ from Ummul Momineen Umm Salma (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sail Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Generous deeds are a safeguard from calamities and hidden aims puts out the fire of Allah’s anger, and good behaviour to relatives brings Allah’s Blessing to life and all good behaviour of any kind, to anyone, is nothing but Charity. Kind persons in this World will get Allah’s favour in the Hereafter in the same way as they have helped people in this World and the opposite will be the condition of the evil people of this World in the Hereafter. First before all others, well behaved persons will go to Paradise.”

Hadith 29: Tabrani in ‘Kabeer’ and ‘Waseet’ narrates from Hazrat Sayyidina Imam Hasan bin Ali (Radi Allahu Anhuma) that the Holy Prophet (Sall Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Undoubtedly to gladden the heart of the Muslim brother is one of the acts which truly brings your salvation.”

Hadith 30: Tabrani in ‘Kabeer’ and ‘Waseet’ narrates from lbn Abbas (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anh) that the Holy Prophet (Sail Allahu Alaihi wa Sallam) says: “Next to the compulsory duties, dearer to Allah than all other acts is to gladden the heart of the Muslim.”
