The purification cultivated by Ramadan must extend to lawful earning, honest financial dealings, and charitable spending, because wealth is part of faith and can affect whether worship is accepted.

For the dinner table

The khateeb explained that the Quran’s discussion of fasting is closely connected to the command not to consume wealth unjustly. Ramadan purifies the heart, but that purification should also reach our income, spending, and treatment of other people. We should seek halal earnings, remember that wealth is a gift from Allah, and give others their rightful share through zakah and charity. The way we handle money is part of our iman, and wronging people can put our good deeds at risk. May Allah purify our hearts, lives, and wealth and bless what is halal for us.

  1. What is one way we can be more careful that our money is halal?
  2. How can our family share wealth or give charity in Allah’s way?
  3. What does it look like to make things right when we have wronged someone?
