KINDNESS IS A BLESSING
The path to kindness is wishing peace and blessing upon each other. Believers, who start their day by invoking peace and blessing upon those people they know and those they do not know, these people are on the road to righteousness. Kindness means creating an atmosphere of calmness, prosperity and being of a sympathetic or helpful nature as well as providing financial means and resources by sharing and spending for the sake of goodness.
One of the most essential and indispensable values of human rights and fairness, is putting the personal interests and possessions of others before our own. By sharing and giving away can bring about a life of abundance! if so, then Islamic civilization is also based on being a good person and acting kindly. If it means giving away mathematically from the emergence of something by hand, truth and heart; the family, household and community will always be blessed abundantly.
Allah says: “The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah, is as the likeness of a grain; it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grain. Allah gives manifold increase to whom He wills. And Allah is All-Sufficient for His creature’s needs, All-Knower.”
When talking about opening the doors of abundance, Rasulullah ﷺ said: “Whoever gives charity equivalent to a date, from his pure earnings and Allah only accepts pure then Allah will accept it with His right hand, then He will nurture it for its companion, like one of you nurtures his foal, until it becomes like a mountain”
Kindness is one of the ways of being deeply thankful, appreciative an grateful toward God. If we appreciate Allah’s favours, He has promised increased Rahmat or mercy for us. Allah’s reward for our gratitude is unlimited and unconditional,
“if you are grateful, Allah will surely give you more and more”.
Allah does not wrong anyone by so much as the smallest speck. And if there is a good deed, Allah will multiply it and pay out an immense reward direct from Him. Rasulullah ﷺ taught us to carry out good deeds, no matter how small they are. Rasulullah ﷺ phet also said,
“Do not disdain any good deed, even your meeting with your brother with a cheerful face.”
