6CHARITYOnce the Holy Prophet sa came to Hadrat Juwairiyah raand asked, “Is there anything to eat?” She replied, “O Messengerof Allah sa , my maidservant received some meat as charity andhas given it to me as a gift. That is all I have.”He responded, “Then bring it. The charity has reachedits intended recipient.” 18Hadrat Juwairiyah ra remembered this incident andnarrated it later. This is a great favour she bestowed upon theMuslims, because this narration makes an issue very clear.The Holy Prophet sa had forbidden his family members fromeating anything that was charity.29
HADRAT juwairiyAHOnce the Holy Prophet sa received a basket of dates thatwas to be donated to charity. His little grandson, Hasan, saw thedates and he put one in his mouth. When the Holy Prophet sasaw him doing that, he put his finger in the child’s mouth andtook out the date, then threw it away. Then he explained tothe child that the date was intended for charity, and it was notlawful for him to eat it.These two incidents appear to contradict each other,but if you pay close attention to them you become amazed atthe depth of the wisdom of the Holy Prophet sa . It is true thatthe family of the Holy Prophet sa was not allowed to acceptanything that was charity, however, if a recipient of charitygifted the charity to them, they were permitted to accept it.This is because it became a gift, freely given, not charity. It isa beautiful concept that allows the poor to keep their dignity,and yet it also allows a person who is in difficulty to do what isbest for him.Hadrat Juwairiyah ra sympathised with the poorimmensely. Giving charity and donating to the poor gave hergreat pleasure. If she ever got a chance to help another person,she considered it to be a blessing from Allah.30
