POOR
AND NEEDY
The Prophet (pbuh) declared
it the right of the poor to be fed by the whole community.
The Quran encourages Muslims to look for those people who
may not "look" poor but may be in need. The Quran
encourages Muslims to give openly and/or secretly. Zakat is
one of the five pillars of Islam. Social justice is one of
the major concerns of Islam's economic system.
We must ask ourselves what
are we as Muslims doing for the poor and needy?
Let's share our thoughts on
the topic and bring those Muslim individuals and communities
who are working for the cause of the poor in the lime light:

Verily, those who put into trial the believing men and believing women (by torturing them and burning them), and then do not turn in repentance, (to Allâh), will have the torment of Hell, and they will have the punishment of the burning Fire. [Al-Buruj 85 : 10]

Narrated Al-Mughira bin Shu’ba: Allah’s Messenger said, “Allah has made it unlawful for you to be undutiful to your mothers, to bury your daughters alive, to refuse others (their dues), and to demand things from others, and He hates for you engaging in gossip, asking many questions about people’s affairs, and squandering property.” (Agreed Upon)
