Al Razzaq - The Provider (Oct 31st 2008)

In Todays Friday Sermon Huzoor talked about one of the many attributes of Allah called Al-Razzaq.Razzaq is an arabic word which means Provider. Provider is the one who supplies all our daily needs.

It is Allah who has created us and He provides us. He gives and supports to sustain our life. Allah enlarges the provision to whom so ever He pleases and makes it difficult to whom so ever He pleases.

Allah has reminded the believers,to spend on their relatives, the poor and the needy.Believer,having firm faith in God, out of his earnings or savings spends according to the commandment of God.

The one who gives a helping hand to poor are the one who will gain the pleasure of Allah and prosper.It becomes our duty to help the needy and we should not consider this act of help as a charity,rather as a fulfillment of our religious responsibility.

Huzoor said we should avoid borrowing money,to buy things which is not in our capacity,rather we should be happy and content with whatever means we can easily afford. A true believer when difficulties arise stays strong in right path and believes, God will take care of his needs.

Huzoor prayed that may Allah guide us in the right path and enable us to practice the true teachings of Islam, Ameen.
