Poor Picking Food

This photo was taken in Lahore in early January (Click to Enlarge). What does this photo tell you?

 1-      A poor man is picking food from a pile of rubbish and eating it.

 2-      Two little girls are collecting waste to burn as fuel.

 3-      None of them are wearing any jumper or jacket, nor proper shoes. Do you know how cold the weather is in Lahore now days? It often goes below zero during night.

Shame on You Our Leaders! Dont you remember the rulers who were fearful even if a dog was hungry. People are eating from rubbish and you sleep in your palaces safe & satisfied.

 This photo obliges us to be Thankful to God for being in far better state than them, and:

 1-      Not to Waste Food that Allah Ta’ala has blessed us with.

 2-      Look around you and Give Charity / Sadaqah as much as you can, or as little as you can.

 3-      There will be many jumpers, Jackets, Sweaters, Shoes and clothes that you very rarely use. Give these to needy. Donate them to a Charity. It is simple and Easy. Just put them in a bag and hand it to your servant or driver. He will do the rest. Or hand them to poor walking along the street. But Don’t Wait, Please DO IT NOW.

4- Work to bring back the true & Just Islamic Ruling System, also known as KHILAFAT that ensures each & every person under their rule is fed.

Omar RA reported that Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was asked that what is the best action? He replied,

” To bring happiness to your Muslim brother brings great reward. If he is hungry then feed him. If he does not have dress, then clothe him. If he is needy then fulfill his need.” Tabrani

And our Propphet SAW Said:

“He who finds relief for one who is hard pressed, Allah would make things easy for him in the Hereafter”.
