The Inner Dimensions of Zakat

By Shah Wali Allah al-Dihlawi

Translated by Marcia K. Hermansen

You should know that when a need presents itself to the poor person, and he entreats God about it either verbally or through his condition, his entreaty knocks at the door of the Divine Generos­ity. Sometimes the best interest will be fulfilled by inspiring the heart of a pure person to furnish the remedy for his want. Thus, when the inspiration descends and he is provoked (to respond), he is given success, God is pleased with Him, and blessings flow to him from above and below, and from his right side and his left, and God’s mercy is upon him.
