Dua for One Who Has Offered You Some of His Wealth


Generosity and gratitude are two characteristics that go hand in hand. In the materialist world today, where people are running after having the most material or worldly possessions, having someone who could offer something to others to help them out is a big act of generosity. In return, if you do not have anything to offer, making dua for one who has offered you some of his wealth is an act of gratitude. 


Islam emphasizes sharing and looking out for others. When someone shares their wealth with you, you should return the favor, but when you cannot, acknowledge it with gratitude and show generosity towards the person who is sharing. 


Abu Hurairah narrated that Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said that those who do not thank the people have not thanked Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى) [Sunan Abī Dāwūd 481]. This hadith clearly states that one must not feel entitled but rather be full of gratefulness for the way the people around have helped them in any way.
