Revealing the Greatness of the Rewards of Small Deeds That Are Often Underestimated

"Revealing the Greatness of the Rewards of Small Deeds that are Often Underestimated"

Dream - The scholars and early predecessors hold the principle that they do not underestimate small acts of goodness. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Do not belittle any act of goodness, even if it is just meeting your brother with a cheerful face." (HR. Muslim)

"Do Not Underestimate the Matter of Ma'ruf!"

"Do not underestimate the good deeds. Speak to your brother with a smiling face and a cheerful expression, for it is among the good deeds." (HR. Abu Dawud)

"The Matter that is Approved by Allah"

As Muslims, we must not underestimate any act of goodness, no matter how small it is. Because it could be that even a small deed is blessed by Allah and becomes the reason for us to enter His paradise.

As the story goes, a prostitute was forgiven her sins by Allah because she gave water to a dying dog.

The translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags is: "Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said:"

"“A woman who was a prostitute was forgiven because she passed by a dog near a well that was sticking out its tongue due to extreme thirst. The prostitute immediately took off her shoe and tied it to her headscarf, then she drew water from the well. It was because of her action that her sins were forgiven.” (Narrated by Imam Bukhari)"

"Diligent in Worship but Likes to Hurt His Neighbor"

The translation of the given text while preserving the HTML tags is as follows: "Rasulullah said, hadith narrated by al-Bukhari in al-Adab al-Mufrad, number 119: It was said to Rasulullah SAW, "O Rasulullah, indeed so-and-so diligently performs the night prayer and fasts the voluntary fasts during the day, and she also enjoys doing good deeds and giving charity. However, she often hurts her neighbors with her words." Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam said, "There is no goodness in her, she is among the inhabitants of Hellfire.""

"Diazab because of Imprisoning a Cat until Death"

The translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving the HTML tags is as follows: "Rasulullah SAW said: "There was a woman who was punished because she locked up a cat until it died. That is why she was put into hell. She locked up the cat without giving it food and water, nor releasing it so it could eat the earthworms." (HR. Bukhari and Muslim)"

That is how we should not underestimate any small act of kindness. Because in the afterlife, every action will receive its reward.

As the word of Allah in Surah Al-Zalzalah, verses 7 to 8, states: "Whoever does good, even as small as an atom's weight, will see its reward. And whoever does evil, even as small as an atom's weight, will see its punishment."

Masya Allah! The practice that may seem trivial, just teaching al-Fatihah to a young child, can bring forgiveness from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala. This serves as a reminder for all of us to always engage in acts of goodness, no matter how small, such as removing a stone from the middle of the road, wearing a cheerful face when meeting others, feeding hungry animals, and so on. Hopefully, with the small practices that we consistently carry out, they will become the path for us to reach His paradise.
