Charitable giving is a crucial aspect of the holiday season, with research showing that the number one motivator for charitable giving is the quest for reward and social attachment. This feeling connects us to others and makes us feel good. GiveDirectly, a non-profit organization, delivers digital cash transfers to support charities. Research supports the claims that charity helps people in need, promotes donors’ wellbeing, and makes us look good.
Although corporations claim that customers donate to charities at checkout to offset their own tax expenses, this claim is not supported by the research. There are nine positive effects of giving to charity, including experiencing more pleasure, becoming a caring neighbor in each community, and supporting local products and events.

📹 Why We Feel A ‘Warm Glow’ When Donating To Charity
It seems like people are more charitable during the holidays, but are they really? What are the psychological benefits of giving to …
📹 POWERFUL – What do I get from giving in charity? – Mufti Menk
Don’t eat the seeds! They make up only 2,5% of the fruit! But you MUST give them back and put them where they came from!
Would be interesting to know the reason behind getting a “warm glow”. Imho humans are all selfish. So what benefit could charity have on a selfish person (besides taxes)? Maybe it soothes our conscience because we feel privileged by having more than we need and donating is a way to relieve some of that guilty feeling. (similar to survivors guilt)
The act of telling someone about your charitable act converts it into a currency. You’re using it as a mark of status, giving the act a selfish value. I’m yet to see someone go on a rescue mission to Africa taking less pictures than there are grains of sand on a beach. Don’t forget to set it as your profile pic 😉
Surah Al-Baqarah (The Cow) Verse 261 The likeness of those who spend their wealth in the Way of Allah, is as the likeness of a grain (of corn); it grows seven ears, and each ear has a hundred grains. Allah gives manifold increase to whom He pleases. And Allah is All-Sufficient for His creatures’ needs, All-Knower.
“A charity is due for every joint in each person on every day the sun comes up: to act justly between two people is a charity; to help a man with his mount, lifting him onto it or hoisting up his belongings onto it, is a charity; a good word is a charity, and removing a harmful thing from the road is a charity.” (Al-Bukhari, Muslim)
I have been to the other side and was sent back because it was not my time, from it I realized this world is just a test. Do not try to beat the test, you can not. There is no way to beat it….just be the best person you can be. Nothing you have acquired matters in the end….such as what treasures you own, but what matters is what you did to make this world better. Be the best person you can be, even if it is painful, even if it causes you to suffer, even if others mock you for giving more beyond your means, this is the only true way to be. It feels better to give food than to eat it, once your realize what really matters. It is good to give the 2.5%….,but if you can, use your wealth in a way that you live upon only what is needed for your own physical and mental happiness. I have only recently realized these things I tell you, and I plan on changing my life going forward.
Allaah the Almighty says in surah/chapter Al Baqarah in the Quraan; “مَّثَلُ ٱلَّذِینَ یُنفِقُونَ أَمۡوَ ٰلَهُمۡ فِی سَبِیلِ ٱللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ حَبَّةٍ أَنۢبَتَتۡ سَبۡعَ سَنَابِلَ فِی كُلِّ سُنۢبُلَةࣲ مِّا۟ئَةُ حَبَّةࣲۗ وَٱللَّهُ یُضَـٰعِفُ لِمَن یَشَاۤءُۚ وَٱللَّهُ وَ ٰسِعٌ عَلِیمٌ (البقرة ٢٦١) Translation of the meaning of this verse: The example of those who spend their wealth in the way of Allāh is like a seed (of grain) which grows seven spikes; in each spike is a hundred grains. And Allāh multiplies (His reward) for whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing. — Saheeh International

Asalamu aleiykum. Brother can you please make a article about binaural beats about a 3 days ago I found a subliminal message article that “send wave sounds to the brain to produce Hgh I listened to it and had bad dreams not scary but sinful. Something in my head told me to see if it’s haram I couldn’t find any articles I found articles were ppl were exposing websites for putting satanic messages in the article, And their saying some are good but I don’t believe it at all. Please make a article they are many Muslim brothers and sisters that think it’s halal and they don’t realize the haramful effects this has on their brains. Alx allah has showed me the signs early on.
