A helping hand

Posted on by Enlightener

We live in seriously uncertain times where everyone is unsure of what to do or say.The sufferrers of this unfortunate circumstances are the have nots in our society.It has gone from very difficult to being almost impossible for the less fortunate in our society to come out and ask for help(beg is not necessarily the best term to use).

The underprivileged ones do not want to show themselves because of the accompannying chain of events.They have to be mentally and physically prepared for anything in this unpredictable world.They might get an insult as a response to their ask for help and that is never an easy pill to swallow.Others might even respond physically to them as they do not want to be seen with the less privileged in the society.Another group will want to show off with the help you are receiving from them and they maybe be forced to take a selfie.This among many other reasons cause the have nots in our society to succumb to their condition.

It is everyone’s responsibility to help a person in need even if it is just verbally.Who knows,your words may just motivate them to work harder to sustain a living.Your kind words might just turn a frown into a smile and what better feeling than that can you ever get.A candle loses nothing by lighting another candle,so use the blessings you have to help others in more desperate situations than yours.If only everyone takes care of their destitute relatives,neighbours and friends then our lives will be worth living.

A life spent only in satisfying self goals and doing nothing to help others is no life at all.In the words of the great Muhammad Ali ‘service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth’.The satisfaction you get when you help somebody is unmatchable.Help out if you can and if you can’t then do not worsen their situation.

There are various people who need our help.There will be no street kids if we decide to give them a home.There will be no orphans if we decide to take them in as our own.Donate money,food and clothings,join charity organizations,give some of your valuable time and spread love.The little you waste may mean everything to another person,so use everything sparingly and always try to be an inspiration to others.

The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
― Barack Obama

Help while you can.Visit the nearest orphanages and look after your relatives,friends and neighbours.

Blessed.Stay safe.

  1. Love is not patronizing and charity isn’t about pity, it is about love. Charity and love are the same — with charity you give love, so don’t just give money but reach out your hand instead.

    1. You don’t actually need a reason to help people just do it for the sake of Allah (swt) so that u can be rewarded in the year after.

  7. MashaAllah. Thanks allot Mr enlightener for this great peace.

    Indeed you’ve played your part for reminding us that it’s the responsibility on each and everyone of us to hold each other’s hand and you have clearly stated that even a good advice is a charity MASHAALLAH and our beloved prophet MUHAMMAD (SAW) teaches us that smiling is also a charity. So this clearly shows that everybody can give charity.

    So let’s all walk together to reach far by holding each other’s hand .

    Thanks Mr enlightener have truly love the topic.

  22. Removing a harmful thing from the road or from someone’s pathway is a form of charity which is a great act in the sight of Allah and we’ll be rewarded for doing it. Doing such an act may prevent a terrible accident from happening. For example,omitting a nail from the street may prevent car accidents and consequently keep the safety of our community.
