Islamic Stories - Simple Acts of Charity

Qasim Rahimahullah narrates: A man passed by Abu Darda (RA) in
Damascus when he was planting a tree and said to Abu Darda (RA): Are
you also doing a (worldly) work, though you are a Sahabi (companion)
of Rasulullah (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: Don't hasten
to blame me; I heard Rasulullah saying: Never did a man plant a
sapling (a young tree), and then a man, or any other creation of Allah
Glory to Him, ate (or benefited) from it, except that it becomes a
Sadaqah (charity) for theplanter.
Source: Sahih Muslim.
Islam considers the slightest acts of helping others as charity! Even
smiling at others to make them happy is counted as charity. It is due
to our selfishness that mankind suffers. Letus give more and take
less.
