Spending for the Sake of Allah
Every meal is a gift to the masjid
When you eat at Al-Ma’idah, the proceeds go back into the daily life of your masjid.
ٱلَّذِينَ يُنفِقُونَ أَمْوَٰلَهُم بِٱلَّيْلِ وَٱلنَّهَارِ سِرًّا وَعَلَانِيَةً فَلَهُمْ أَجْرُهُمْ عِندَ رَبِّهِمْ وَلَا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ
“Those who spend their wealth [in Allah’s way] by night and by day, secretly and publicly — they will have their reward with their Lord. And no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve.”
Surah Al-Baqarah · 2:274
Said Jesus, the son of Mary, “O Allah, our Lord, send down to us a table [spread with food] from the heaven to be for us a festival for the first of us and the last of us and a sign from You. And provide for us, and You are the best of providers.”
A man asked the Prophet ﷺ, “What sort of deeds or (what qualities of) Islam are good?” The Prophet ﷺ replied, “To feed (the poor) and greet those whom you know and those whom you do not know.”
