Chapter 6
Neighbour's Rights
1963: Helping sinful neighbours
Question:
Assalamu'alaykum
In my neighborhood there are many needy people.
My question is if they request me for some money
which alhamdulillah I have right now, can I give it to
them knowing that they will not only use it to buy food
but also drugs and alcohol? Some of these needy people
are Muslims also.
Some people say that I should not give them any
money until I have proof that they are not buying anything
illegal or haraam. Others say that I should keep giving
them money but calmly give them a little da'wah. May
Allah most high reward you for your answer.
Answer:
Praise be to Allaah.
You can buy things they need, such as food, clothing
and so on, or you can let them buy things that are
permissible, and pay the bill for them, whilst continuing to advise
them, warn them, and call them to Islam, because
your neighbours' rights over you are great indeed. The
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Jibreel kept advising me of the rights of neighbours so
much that I thought he would make them my heirs."
(Agreed upon).
And Allaah is the Source of help.
