Rumah Bakti Nur Syaheera

The month of Ramadhan has turn Malaysia into a food fest. For the whole month, Pasar Ramadhan has been set up to sell all kinds of local and some foreign food to cater to Muslims to break fast everyday at sunset. This food fest does not only benefit the Muslims but also other races in Malaysia when they can buy anything from juices, local "kueh", various types of "Nasi" and more, just name it. 

Sometimes, as human, we tend to over do. During fasting what our eyes see at the Pasar Ramadhan taste really delicious and our heart tend to forget that until we might overbuy. In the end the food goes into the waste bin because we might over fill our stomach or the food stale before Imsak ( late supper befor fasting of the day begins).


I went to Pasar Ramadhan at Kinrara yesterday evening (26 July) and the atmosphere is the same as in other Pasar Ramadhan. At the venue there is the presence of donation boxes at three locations. These donation boxes is not a menace to our wallet but if you are generous enough, you can drop your donation into these boxes. These donations is for Orphanage run by individuals or Muslim NGOs. I an not sure they are from the same orphanage but that is not the point. 


As Muslim we must remember that what we earn from our daily jobs or from any source might not be 100% ours. There might be what belongs to someone else. Thats why in Islam, it is compulsory for every Muslim to pay zakat and fitrah and it is one of the 5 pillars of Islam. By donating it is part of self cleansing faith that should be our lifestyle. When we donate, it does not mean our earning minimize but Allah will reward what ever one donate, in multiples, and from unexpected sources.  So do not be greedy but share a little bit of what you have with those who are not so lucky as you are. Among the unlucky ones are those orphan who unlike us can have the love and care from our father, mother and families. But those orphanage lost their loved ones and has to rely on other caring individuals to look after their welfare. Just look at those kids at a young age who lost their parents. You still have your parents and you are very lucky. 

Surah Al- Baqarah ayat 261

مَّثَلُ الَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ أَنبَتَتْ سَبْعَ سَنَابِلَ فِي كُلِّ سُنبُلَةٍ مِّئَةُ حَبَّةٍ وَاللّهُ يُضَاعِفُ لِمَن يَشَاءُ وَاللّهُ وَاسِعٌ عَلِيمٌ
Bandingan (derma) orang-orang yang membelanjakan hartanya pada jalan Allah, ialah sama seperti sebiji benih yang tumbuh menerbitkan tujuh tangkai; tiap-tiap tangkai itu pula mengandungi seratus biji. Dan (ingatlah), Allah akan melipatgandakan pahala bagi sesiapa yang dikehendakiNya, dan Allah Maha Luas (rahmat) kurniaNya, lagi Meliputi ilmu pengetahuanNya.
The likeness of those who spend their wealth in Allah ' s way is as the likeness of a grain which groweth seven ears , in every ear a hundred grains . Allah giveth increase manifold to whom He will . Allah is All Embracing , All Knowing .
为主道而施舍财产的人,譬如(一个农夫,播下)一粒谷种,发出七穗,每穗结一百颗谷粒。真主加倍地报酬他所意欲的人,真主是宽大的,是全知的。

One of the donation boxes (but maybe all three)  id from RUMAH BAKTI NUR SYAHEERA. This orphanage is managed and under the auspices of Pertubuhan Kebajikan Nur Syaheera Kuala Lumpur (Registration No 1379-09-WKL).

From Al Baqarah
إِن تُبْدُواْ الصَّدَقَاتِ فَنِعِمَّا هِيَ وَإِن تُخْفُوهَا وَتُؤْتُوهَا الْفُقَرَاء فَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لُّكُمْ وَيُكَفِّرُ عَنكُم مِّن سَيِّئَاتِكُمْ وَاللّهُ بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ خَبِيرٌ
2.271. Jika kamu menampakkan sedekah(mu) , maka itu adalah baik sekali. Dan jika kamu menyembunyikannya dan kamu berikan kepada orang-orang fakir, maka menyembunyikan itu lebih baik bagimu. Dan Allah akan menghapuskan dari kamu sebagian kesalahan-kesalahanmu; dan Allah mengetahui apa yang kamu kerjakan
