Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

by Sheikh Muhammad Abdul Hai Arifi

SADQAH FOR EVERY JOINT OF THE BODY

Hadrat Aishah (Radi Allaahu Ta’ala Anha) narrated ALLAAH’s messenger as saying, “Every one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and sixty joints, so he who declares ALLAAH’S praises ALLAAH, declares that He is the only ALLAAH, glorifies ALLAAH, asks forgiveness of ALLAAH, each one of these eats counts as a sadaqah. Similarly removing a stone, a thorn or a bone from people’s path counts as sadaqah.

The Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) has said that if you cannot do anything else, then at least help the helpless and needy. [Bukhari]

He also exhorted to guide anyone who has lost his way or who is blind. [Tirmizi]

He has also said that one who removes a thorn from the path while walking, ALLAAH appreciates his good deed and pardons his sins. [Tirmizi]
