Charity is one of the most beautiful charitable acts that bring a Muslim closer to Allah. Allah has placed immense goodness in charity—it purifies wealth, increases it, relieves worries, and helps the poor and needy. Since Friday holds a special virtue in Islam, giving charity on this day is a highly recommended act that brings blessings and great rewards.

In this article, we will explore the virtue of giving charity on Fridays, how to perform it in a way that benefits both the giver and the community, and the prophetic traditions and teachings that highlight its importance.

The Virtue of Charity in Islam

Islam has made charity one of the most beloved deeds to Allah because of its role in strengthening social bonds and alleviating the suffering of the needy. Allah says in the Holy Qur'an:

"Who is it that will loan Allah a goodly loan so He may multiply it for him many times over?" (Al-Baqarah: 245)

The Prophet (peace be upon him) also praised charity in many hadiths, including:

"Charity does not decrease wealth." (Reported by Muslim)

This hadith confirms that charity brings blessings and does not diminish wealth; rather, it increases it.

Giving charity on Fridays, in particular, fosters love and strengthens bonds among people. It also enhances the blessings of Friday, which is the greatest day of the week for Muslims.

Why is Charity on Friday Special?

Friday is the best day in the sight of Allah. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said:

"The best day on which the sun rises is Friday." (Reported by Muslim)

Allah has granted this day unique virtues, including an hour in which supplications are accepted and the gathering of Muslims for prayer and remembrance.

Dedicating charity to Friday makes this day even more special with acts of kindness, fostering a spirit of generosity among Muslims. Some reports suggest that the Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged increasing good deeds on Fridays, including charity, due to its great reward and blessings.

Benefits of Giving Charity on Friday

Charity on this blessed day carries numerous benefits for both the giver and society, including:

  • Increased Rewards: Allah multiplies the reward for those who give charity, and Friday is a day of blessings, increasing the chances of earning multiplied good deeds.
  • Easing the Suffering of the Needy: Giving charity on Friday helps alleviate the hardships of those in need and brings joy to their hearts, which is one of the most beloved acts to Allah.
  • Purification of Wealth and Soul: Charity purifies one's wealth, wards off calamities, and alleviates worries and illnesses.
  • Strengthening the Bond with Allah: Regular charity on Fridays nurtures a closer connection to Allah and deepens faith through one of the most rewarding deeds.

Prophetic Traditions and Sayings on Charity on Fridays

The Prophet (peace be upon him) encouraged charity at all times, but Friday is particularly virtuous. A famous hadith states:

Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) said:
"Every morning, two angels descend, and one of them says: ‘O Allah, give more to the one who spends,’ while the other says: ‘O Allah, bring ruin to the one who withholds.’" (Reported by Bukhari and Muslim)

This hadith shows that those who give charity receive divine blessings, while those who withhold may face loss.

Some scholars have also stated: “When Friday comes, giving charity on this day is better than on other days.” This is because Friday gathers many virtues, and its blessings are numerous.
