Afternoon Reminder. Saturday. 5th of Jum.2 1435. Sponsoring someone to study Islam is an excellent savings. Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: There were two brothers in the days of the Prophet (PBUH). One of them used to attend the Prophets circle (to acquire knowledge) and the other used to earn their living). Once the latter complained to the Prophet (PBUH) against the former (for not earning his living). He (PBUH) replied, Perhaps you are being provided because of him. [At-Tirmidhi]. This Hadith evidently shows that it is permissible and desirable to devote oneself or make someone else to devote himself for religious knowledge. Such students of religious knowledge should not be considered a burden. Similarly, one should also not ignore those students and scholars who are devoted to such knowledge because Allah makes their help a means of increasing the donors sources of subsistence. So those of us who are lacking Islamic knowledge and finding it difficult pursue it due to work should seriously think of sponsoring a relative into full time Islamic studies and that will be a sadaqatul Jaariya for us in shaa Allah. But lets note that studying the deen is fard meaning compulsory upon each of us so there is no excuse from the above narration. We ask Allah to keep guiding our eemaan and protect us from any satanic influences. Ameen.
