The Bequest of Charity to Relieve Distress and Sorrow

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah preserve you, many people bequeath charity, to the point that one person bequeaths charity so that his distress and sorrow may go away, and so that Allah may provide for him and protect him from evil.

Answer:
Yes, charity is good. Give charity with a good intention, and Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) will accept it from him. Charity has an effect in warding off calamity and in healing from illness, because it is an act of worship.
