The cost of not giving
We all think about what giving costs us. But what about the cost of not giving?
Dhul Hijjah is a reminder that generosity is one of the most beloved acts in Islam. For Muslims, giving Khums and charity is a way to purify wealth, strengthen faith, and help those who are struggling.
Allah (swt) says:
“The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allah is like a seed growing seven ears…”
Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayah 261
When we hold tightly to wealth, we can miss opportunities for reward, mercy, and spiritual growth.
The real cost of not giving
Not giving can affect more than our finances. It can affect our hearts.
The cost may include:
- Missed rewards in the Hereafter
- Reduced spiritual growth
- Less gratitude
- Ignoring people in need
- Becoming attached to material things
Dhul Hijjah is the perfect opportunity to give sincerely and reconnect with Allah (swt).
