Translation text: Is it Permissible to Give Ṣadaqah to Parents who are in Need? - Sheikh Muḥammad Hishām Ṭāhirī السائل: يقول هل يجوز اعطاء مبلغ الصدقة للوالدين المحتاجين The questioner is asking: Is it permissible to give Ṣadaqah (charity) to parents who are in need? الشيخ: أما يستحي هذا السائل؟ أما يخاف من الله عز وجل؟ كيف يعطي صدقته لوالديه؟ Shaykh: Doesn't this questioner feel ashamed?! Doesn't he fear Allāh ‎ﷻ ?! How can he give Ṣadaqah to his parents?! ما وجد إلا صدقة يعطيها لوالديه الصدقة أوساخ الناس. Did he not find anything except Ṣadaqah to give his parents?! Ṣadaqah is the dirt of people. (i.e., their wealth). كيف يعطي وسخه لوالديه؟ How can he give dirt to his parents?! الواجب عليه أن يعطي والديه أطيب أمواله. It is obligatory upon him to give the best of his wealth to his parents. لا حول ولا قوه إلا بالله There is no ḥawl (change from state to state) or strength except with Allāh. وصلنا بالمادية إلى درجة ما كنا ندركه. With materialism we have reached a level that we didn’t think of. انت ومالك لأبيك "You and your wealth belong to your father" (Ḥadīth of the Prophet ﷺ) كيف تسأل هذا السؤال أما تستحي من الله عز وجل How can you ask this question? Don't you feel shy of Allah?! كانا يعطيانك أطيب ما عندهم They (parents) used to give you the best of what they had. كانا يعطيانك أطيب ما عندهم من الطعام يلبسانك أحسن ويلبسانك أحسن الثياب ويجمِّلانك ووو They used to give you the best food that they had. They used to clothe you with the best of clothes, beautify you, and so on. والآن أنت تأتي وتسأل تقول يجوز أعطي الصدقة لوالدي! إذا لم يكن عندك إيمان فاين المروءة؟ أين الرجولة؟ أين النخوة؟ And now you come and ask if it is permissible to give Sadaqah to your parents? Even if you don't have piety, where is your chivalry, manhood, and dignity? الجاهلي على كفر وشرك يعطي ماله كله لأبيه وأمِّه إرضاءً لهما The Jāhilī (before Islam) who is upon Kufr (disbelief) and Shirk (polytheism) gives all of his wealth to his father and mother in order to please them. وأنت أيها المغفل تسأل مثل هذا السؤال؟ And then you, O fool, ask such a question? ----------------------------------------------------- Rabbaniyeen ربانيين 🔴اليوتيوب🔴👇 https://www.youtube.com/@rabbaniyeen 🔴الانستجرام🔴👇 https://www.instagram.com/rabbaniyeen/ 🔴التيليغرام🔴👇 https://t.me/Rabbaniyeen
