5 year old's with big hearts! how BIG are you?

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
Assalamu aleikum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh,

It really is amazing to see these two five year olds engage in charity. The ayah that comes to mind:
{مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُقْرِضُ اللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًا فَيُضَاعِفَهُ لَهُ أَضْعَافًا كَثِيرَةً وَاللَّهُ يَقْبِضُ وَيَبْسُطُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ (245) } albaqarah.

Its like the boy explained it in his own simple understanding, in the first video. Allah does not specify groups; anybody who does these acts will be judged according to their deeds!

We shouldn't underestimate what kids are capable of, afterall, they are a creation of Allah, the best of creators! {الذي أحسن كل شيء خلقه وبدأ خلق الإنسان من طين} assajdah.

Now imagine raising your kids around the quran, spending their precious time memorizing it... they will indeed be affected by the goodness that's promoted in its verses.

Another verse that comes to mind { وَلَا تُؤْتُوا السُّفَهَاءَ أَمْوَالَكُمُ الَّتِي جَعَلَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ قِيَامًا وَارْزُقُوهُمْ فِيهَا وَاكْسُوهُمْ وَقُولُوا لَهُمْ قَوْلًا مَعْرُوفًا (5) وَابْتَلُوا الْيَتَامَى حَتَّى إِذَا بَلَغُوا النِّكَاحَ فَإِنْ آَنَسْتُمْ مِنْهُمْ رُشْدًا فَادْفَعُوا إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ وَلَا تَأْكُلُوهَا إِسْرَافًا وَبِدَارًا أَنْ يَكْبَرُوا وَمَنْ كَانَ غَنِيًّا فَلْيَسْتَعْفِفْ وَمَنْ كَانَ فَقِيرًا فَلْيَأْكُلْ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ فَإِذَا دَفَعْتُمْ إِلَيْهِمْ أَمْوَالَهُمْ فَأَشْهِدُوا عَلَيْهِمْ وَكَفَى بِاللَّهِ حَسِيبًا (6)} almaaidah.

Here Allah orders us to take means in preserving money, but imagine having kids like these.. what a great blessing, and you won't have to worry about them wasting money!

**To the brothers, these links require lowering gaze.
