Advantages of Sadako

 It is narrated from the words of al-Haris ibn al-Haris al-Ash’ari that

that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) mentioned the words of Yahya ibn Zakariya, who, listing the five commandments prescribed to him by the Almighty, said:

“… I also command you to give alms / sadaqa /. (The distributor of sadaka) is like a man who was captured by enemies, his hands were tied to his neck, and when they took him to execution, he said to them: “Let me buy you off!” And he began to get rid of them with all his possessions, until he bought himself … “.

 Imam Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:

“Almsgiving in a wonderful way becomes the reason for the prevention of various troubles, even among sinners, wicked and unbelievers. Allah repels misfortunes with it and all people, both enlightened and simple, know about this and can confirm, since they have tried it on their own experience. … Some legends say: “Hurry with alms! Truly, trouble cannot get over it. ”
