Abstract

God Almighty emphasized the importance of charity in many Quranic verses. Charity is considered a means of purifying souls and bringing them closer to God. The Quran spoke about charity in various ways, including God’s command to give charity sincerely and without arrogance or show.

A person must be aware of the importance of charity and provide it with the appropriate value according to his capabilities. Charity contributes to strengthening social ties and increasing solidarity among members of society.
Charity is also a means of strengthening the human spirit and educating souls on tolerance and love. Muslims must make additional efforts to promote the concept of charity and apply it in their daily lives. Applying the provisions of charity in daily life is an urgent necessity to achieve harmony and solidarity among members of society. It is important to understand well that charity is not limited to the material aspect only, but also includes the spiritual and human aspect... Therefore, every individual must strive to apply these provisions and encourage others to do good and give without limits. Achieving mercy and tolerance begins with offering charity and donations with sincerity and pure intention for the sake of God Almighty
