Q
What are the different ways a Muslim can fulfill the obligation of giving charity if they have no material wealth?
A
from his father from his grandfather that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Every Muslim has to give in charity.” The
people asked, “O Allah’s Prophet! If someone has nothing to give, what will he do?” He said, “He
should work with his hands and benefit himself and also give in charity (from what he earns).” The
people further asked, “If he cannot find even that?” He replied, “He should help the needy who appeal
for help.” Then the people asked, “If he cannot do that?” He replied, “Then he should perform good
deeds and keep away from evil deeds and this will be regarded as charitable deeds.”
