Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

THE SWEETNESS OF ZAKAT

Hadrat Abdullah bin Muawiyah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Prophet said: There are three acts which when one does he would taste the sweetness of faith: Worshipping ALLAAH alone, believing that no one other than ALLAAH is fit to be worshipped, and paying Zakat on one’s wealth every year that his self urges him to it and feels happy (instead of restraining it).

Note: The rank of Zakat is evident from its being mentioned together with tauhid and its effect from the fact that it augments the delight of Iman.
