Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is known that charity is a cause for the growth of wealth and a cause for healing from illness by the permission of Allah. So, if a man gives charity with the intention of these things, is he rewarded for that?
Answer:
It is according to his intention, for deeds are by intentions. If he intends nothing but healing and the increase of wealth, he has only what he intended. If he intends the reward from Allah, and also intends healing and the increase of wealth, then he has what he intended, and both matters will be realized for him by the permission of Allah.
