donated an amount that felt large to me

play02:09

about a few months ago and I wasn't sure

play02:12

if I'd gone too far but then within the

play02:15

next week I found that unexpectedly we

play02:18

had this investment of over 500 000

play02:41

from Iqbal Nasim

play02:43

assalamualaikum when I was in my

play02:46

Investment Banking career and I had made

play02:48

the intention to leave and to give it

play02:50

all up and to sacrifice a lot of money

play02:53

to go on a better path to to serve God's

play02:57

cause and to to do something more

play02:59

meaningful and I suppose faithful with

play03:01

my life I remember thinking that um I'd

play03:04

never end up going on luxury holidays

play03:08

again or to nice places again so in my

play03:10

budgeting for the future

play03:12

um I had to kind of cut out all the

play03:13

stuff that I'd been used to and I

play03:16

remember just thinking to myself you

play03:17

know what I'm just going to give up on

play03:19

the idea that I'm actually going to be

play03:20

able to travel much or at all uh on on

play03:23

what will be probably a very low

play03:25

compensation compared to what I've been

play03:28

used to but in the 10 years since Allah

play03:31

has taken me to dozens of different

play03:33

countries amazing trips lots of travel

play03:37

um and so it just shows he provides from

play03:40

where you just don't expect here's a

play03:42

really powerful story of from to fail

play03:44

over Islamic relief where the return was

play03:46

almost immediate in 2010 I was

play03:49

presenting a live Appeal on Islam

play03:51

Channel and we were raising funds for

play03:53

Pakistan which had been devastated by

play03:54

floods a brother called in and

play03:57

immediately became emotional shared with

play04:00

us a story that for years he'd been

play04:02

working to save enough money to go to

play04:04

Hajj he'd struggled but it just met his

play04:07

Target alhamdulillah and was about to

play04:09

book his ticket

play04:10

but then when he witnessed the suffering

play04:13

of his brothers and sisters in Pakistan

play04:15

he felt compelled to do something about

play04:17

that and instead donated decide to

play04:20

donate every penny towards our Pakistan

play04:23

appeal I mean

play04:25

subhanallahu Akbar is it was so

play04:27

emotional

play04:29

two three calls later

play04:31

a travel agent called in and said that

play04:34

he wanted to be connected to that

play04:35

brother because he was willing to take

play04:37

him to Hajj all expenses paid

play04:41

subhanallah

play04:43

it reminded us of the Hadith or the

play04:46

prophet salallahu alaihi wasallam when

play04:47

he said that if you give up something

play04:49

for Almighty Allah

play04:52

Allah will replace it with something

play04:54

better in that moment that Hadith came

play04:57

to life

play04:58

and it was inspirational subhanallah

play05:01

here's another incredible story of

play05:03

continued donation which adds up over

play05:05

time this time narrated by ustad yestro

play05:07

over at Muslim hands to give just an

play05:10

example of a a family-run business from

play05:13

Birmingham who have mashallah over the

play05:16

years continued to give thousands upon

play05:18

thousands of pounds and I remember that

play05:21

you know I'd come back come and see them

play05:22

in in Ramadan and I would certainly ask

play05:25

them you know from the uh you know the

play05:28

donations you'll be giving and they seem

play05:30

to be increasing every year do you how

play05:32

how is the business going are you

play05:33

finding you know like like I'm kind of

play05:35

getting at the fun are you finding some

play05:37

sort of you know decrease in the amounts

play05:39

or uh or how it is and they said

play05:41

alhamdulillah every single year they see

play05:44

an increase and I find that really

play05:45

remarkable especially if there's a card

play05:48

which is on the increase uh what's

play05:50

beautiful about the word zakar is that

play05:52

no doubt it has the meaning of

play05:53

purification but it also has the meaning

play05:55

of which is increase in growth

play06:00

who continue to give staggering amounts

play06:03

of donations may Allah give them more in

play06:04

return I mean

play06:06

what incredible stories Masha Allah we

play06:09

interact with alhamdulillah very

play06:11

affluent folks as part of our work with

play06:13

curate capital and we consistently hear

play06:15

stories like this one of our investors

play06:17

for example was sat on a large amount of

play06:20

money of uninvested cash and had a large

play06:22

zakata Bill he gritted his teeth and

play06:25

donated and then miraculously found that

play06:27

the exact amount of zakat he had given

play06:28

had come back to him in the form of a

play06:31

currency exchange fluctuation folks

play06:34

usually with investment strategies that

play06:35

we discuss on YouTube and other videos

play06:37

discuss you'll always see a caveat your

play06:40

capital is at risk and past returns are

play06:42

no indication of future returns but

play06:44

alhamdulillah here there is no such

play06:46

caveat to give Allah's promise is true

play06:48

and as Muslims we hold to this sincerely

play06:51

getting started is simple just donate

play06:53

pay yourself

play06:55

give charity find good charities to give

play06:59

to and good opportunities and sincere

play07:01

opportunities to give to and most

play07:03

importantly have a sincere intention and

play07:05

occasions like the last 10 nights of

play07:07

Ramadan are amazing opportunities to

play07:09

really double up our efforts in the hope

play07:11

of searching for Lay little so how much

play07:14

is too much charity well the prophet

play07:16

salallahu said that the best of Charity

play07:18

is the charity which you practice while

play07:20

you are healthy Penny counting and

play07:22

afraid of poverty and wish to become

play07:24

wealthy so you should give just until

play07:27

that point where you feel like you might

play07:29

have gone a little bit too far that's

play07:31

the peak of charitable giving and as I

play07:34

mentioned it's really important to keep

play07:36

your intention pure give purely for the

play07:39

sake of Allah not because you want to

play07:40

return but seeing that the promise of

play07:43

Allah is true and the return will come

play07:45

either in this life or the next and in

play07:47

fact the next is probably preferable and

play07:49

if you're looking to calculate your

play07:50

zakat and give to high impact Charities

play07:52

then I highly recommend our Zagar

play07:55

calculator it is the best calculator out

play07:57

there in my opinion to deal with the

play07:59

various types of investment classes and

play08:01

point in the journey it is our annual

play08:05
