Charity is what a servant gives to the poor and needy, whether in kind or in cash, willingly, in order to draw closer to God Almighty. Charity is one of the deeds encouraged by the Islamic religion and commanded by the Lord of His servants. Because of its many benefits, God Almighty said, commanding His Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace: (Say to My servants who have believed to establish prayer and spend from what We have provided them, secretly and openly, before the day comes when there will be no sale.)
