69- THE BENEFICENT (AL-BARR)
Allah, the BENEFICENT endows His creatures with His lavish Beneficence; He never deprives them of His Beneficence when they disobey. From Him, the BENEFICENT, all benevolence is derived; He conveys benevolence to the necessitous with all the Mercy and Grace. He says, “Truly it is He, the Beneficent, the Merciful!” (TUR, 28).
Allah says about people who are beneficent to others, “And kind to his parents, and he was not overbearing or rebellious” (MARYAM, 14), “He hath made me kind to my mother and not overbearing or miserable” (MARYAM, 32). Allah, the BENEFICENT, taught us to pray and ask for His Beneficence, He says, “..and take to Thyself our souls in the company of therighteous” (AL-I-‘IMRAN, 193), and He commandedus to be beneficent in order to be endued with His Offers. He says, “..helpye one another in righteousness and piety” (MA’IDA,3), and He warns us by saying, “By no means shall ye attain righteousness unless ye give freely of that which ye love” (AL-I-‘IMRAN, 92).
He shows us the gateway to the accepted and the blessed beneficence, “..but it is righteousness to believe in God.” (BAQARA, 177), and He described the angels and praised them by saying, “Written by the hands of scribes. Honourable, pious and just” (‘ABASA, 15, 16).
Allah is the Most BENEFICENT, all His Endowments are a favour from Him, Glory be to the Most BENEFICENT, Praise and Glory be to Him, He is Allah.
