Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In His saying, Glorified and Exalted is He,[Al-Kawthar 108:1-2], is it taken from it that one who is provided with something, or to whom good comes from Allah, is prescribed to pray a voluntary prayer in gratitude to Allah, and to slaughter for Allah on account of this matter, taking this from the verse?
Answer:
No, this is not taken from it, but whoever is provided with some wealth should give charity from it,[An-Nisa 4:8] from it, so provide for them [An-Nisa 4:8], giving charity from it is his gratitude, yes.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In His saying, Glorified and Exalted is He,
(1) Indeed, We have granted you, [O Muhammad], al-Kawthar. (2) So pray to your Lord and sacrifice [to Him alone].
إِنَّا أَعْطَيْنَاكَ الْكَوْثَرَ فَصَلِّ لِرَبِّكَ وَانْحَرْAnswer:
