Giving out sadaqah

Hello readers, today I will be writing about sadaqah. Sadaqah is a voluntary charity. It is not obligatory, however, it is good for you. There is no fixed percentage when it comes to Sadaqah. You will give out based on what you have.

Allah loves charity, "Indeed, the men who practice charity and [they who] have loaned Allah a good loan. It will multiplied for them and they will have a noble reward." Quran, Chapter 57:18.

"They ask you [o Muhammad], what they should spend. Say, whatever you give should be for parents, close relatives, orphans, the needy and travellers. God is well aware of whatever good you do." Quran, Chapter 2: 215

From above, you can infer that sadaqah is good for you even though it is not obligatory. You get blessed for it anytime you give out sadaqah. Make sure you do give out for the sake of Allah. That is all for today. Thank you for reading this article. Keep checking out my blog regularly, Cheers!

They learn from it and apply it to the next risk they take and eventually they become experts at the risk they take (risk taken should not be excessive(too much uncertainty)). Then they end up having 80% success rates which I think is good enough. Make sure your business is halal. Give charity regularly from your income, Allah loves charity an...

The need for constant power supply in developing nations

Hello readers, I will be writing about electricity today. I will be using Nigeria as a case study. Electricity is one of the factors that contributes to the success of an organisation. Developed countries have been able to maintain a constant power supply. If they are able to have constant power then it is achievable. Constant electricity could attract good companies, thereby creating employment opportunities. This could alievate poverty in the developing countries. Thus, the GDP (Gross Domestic Product) of the economy will improve. The challenge here with having constant power supply is also not to pollute the environment as fossil fuel is mostly used for the supply of electricity. Greener alternatives could be used such as tidal energy and wind energy. In my opinion, electricity could be constant in Nigeria if the industry is privatised. The privitisation of the telephone industry made mobile phone easily accessible by individuals. Most people own a phone, both ...
