It3am
Two days ago I got together with two "newly made" friends and we made food for the poor .. "it3am" .. it was an amazing experience !! I've always been into charity work and donating and all that ... but I never actually "collected money, bought food, stood in the kitchen, made food, wrapped it up and went out to distribute it".It was a totally different feeling ... especially the distributing part....and even though we were only 3, everything went smooth and easy (we made food for 25 and packed it in 4 and a half hours).. sub7an Allah ... el7amdulilah... isA Rabena yataqabbal minna ...
PS. I got back sooner than I thought !! :-D

making charity work always bring some joy in ourselves, especially when we see how we turn some needy people smling ,you can bring up your intension in that , that you are making some people happy , it is a great thing.
Sob7an Allah , i went once with my best froend to some charity work like that on one of the thurusdays and i dont know why we were having a lot of fun and we were laughing all the time and there was something i dont know what is it that made us very happy , (i belive that happiness is from GOd only , you may work in being happy and at the end of the day you are not)
in the day after which was firday , we went to one of the restaurants and we spent the whole day together, trying to enjoy our time, but at the end of the day we felt yeah we spent good time , BUT not comparable at all with the day before. really i dont know why , we didnt enjoy our time that much on that friday , we were pretty bored.
sob7an Allah i said to myself , God brings happiness and peace to our hearts when we do good deeds, ISA
Yep ... sub7an Allah I totally agree with you and I have similar experiences to the ones you mentioned ...
Last month I was taking a really time consuming course ( 8:30am - 6:00pm daily !!!! ) and we also had work to do at home .. anyway I was "totally beat".. at that time I was part of a campaign collecting medicine that people don't use anymore to redistribute ... even though I was completely exhausted ..sub7an Allah while working on that campaign I felt extremely happy and not tired at all !!!!!!
rabbena yatakabbal minnik. it is nice what you do. and when you cook it yourself it is more fulfilling than when you buy and distribute. that would be the same as just giving money. cooking; you out your effort. sheddy 7elek, ramadan gay. :)
yeah .. isA we're able to do the same and more in ramadan...
cooking together with our purpose in mind was so much fun...actually all of it was great el7amdullah .. i'm looking forward to doing that again isA
Would you please let me know if I can help?? sounds great...rabena yatakabal ISA....
