Share in Doing Good
The shaikh, Dr. Muḥammad ibn Ghālib Al-ʿUmarī, may Allāh protect him, said:
Share in [doing] good, even if [it’s only] by directing [others] to it.
You might not be able to teach people [yourself], so spread knowledge [that’s been taught by] the scholars. You might not be able to [give] charity, so direct [others who can] to those deserving of it. You might not be able to do many [good] things in your dealings with people, but you’re not going to be incapable of saying a good word [or] smiling sincerely, [as] in the ḥadīth: “A [friendly] smile from you directed at your [Muslim] brother is [counted as] an act of charity for you.”¹

شارك في الخير ولو بالدلالة عليه
قد تعجز عن تدريس الناس، فانشر علم العلماء.
قد تعجز عن الصدقة، فدلّ على المستحقين لها.
قد تعجز عن أمور كثيرة في تعاملك مع الناس، ولكن لن تعجز عن كلمة طيبة، وابتسامة صادقة.
وفي الحديث "تبسمك في وجه أخيك لك صدقة".— د.محمد بن غالب العُمري (@m_g_alomari) January 25, 2021
