FAQ
Sadaqah is a voluntary act of giving in Islam, encompassing any form of charitable giving done with the intention of pleasing Allah. Unlike Zakat, Sadaqah is not obligatory and can be given at any time, in any amount, and in various forms - from monetary donations to kind actions and good deeds.
Sadaqah can take many forms: monetary donations, helping others, sharing knowledge, removing harmful objects from paths, planting trees, speaking kind words, sharing food, giving a smile, or even refraining from harmful actions. Even small acts of kindness are considered Sadaqah when done with sincere intention.
Sadaqah brings multiple benefits: it purifies wealth, increases blessings (barakah), serves as expiation for sins, provides protection from calamities, helps those in need, and strengthens community bonds. It's also considered a form of continuous charity (Sadaqah Jariyah) when its benefits continue even after one's death.
Sadaqah can be given at any time, but certain times are considered especially virtuous: during Ramadan, Fridays, times of hardship, and when others are in urgent need. The Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged giving Sadaqah early in the morning, and it's recommended to give regularly, even if in small amounts.
Sadaqah Jariyah is continuous charity that continues to benefit people and earn rewards even after the donor's death. Examples include building mosques or schools, digging wells, planting trees, sharing beneficial knowledge, or establishing charitable institutions that continue to serve the community.
Key etiquettes include giving with sincerity, keeping the charity private when possible, not following up with reminders or boasting, giving from the best of what you have, giving while healthy and in need yourself, and ensuring the recipient's dignity is preserved. It's also important to give with a cheerful heart and from lawful earnings.
