Charity


In our planet Earth, there are hot places with high temperatures and cold places with low temperatures. The universal duty of hot places (rich) is to send (give charity) a flow of heat to cold places (poor). There so many others similar flows in the universe. Now, similar to Nature; God also created rich and poor people. Richness is not only about money but in a more general definition. For example, an intelligent person is considered “rich” compared to somebody not born intelligent. Similar to the universe; there are therefore many flows between humans and we are all part of these flows.

Therefore, the most important in life is not what we have but what we do with it. For example, If we think we are lucky to have comfortable life or rich. Our universal and social duty in the flow of money is to help the poor by giving part of it (charity) in many ways that we can. People are also part of flows in workplaces and give “charity”. The charity of an engineer is to offer time and expertise to solve properly technical problems. The charity of a doctor is to treat patients adequately and prescribe for them the right medicine. The charity of a teacher is to offer good knowledge and teach values to the students.

For being part of the flow by giving charity; we create balance and harmony in our societies (similar to harmony in universe). Moreover, we will feel inner peace and happiness as rewards from God. Those who resist to flows or go in the opposite way by not giving their part of charity or even taking from the poor, they just hurt themselves by feeling uncomfortable and miserable
