سخاوت وہ ہے جو بن مانگے ہو، اور جو مانگنے پر ہو وہ یا تو شرم ہے یا ملامت سے بچنا۔
English Translation • انگریزی ترجمہ
“Generosity is that which is spontaneous; as for that which is given on being asked, it is either out of shame or to avoid reproach.”
Reflections: Imam Ali ؑ identifies the **Purity of Intent** in giving. He explains that giving after someone asks for help is often a social obligation—done because we are embarrassed to say no or afraid of being judged. True nobility ($Sakha$) lies in being observant enough to notice another’s need before they have to voice it. This preserves the dignity of the receiver and proves the sincerity of the giver.
Hazrat Ali A.S Saying
“
السَّخَاءُ مَا كَانَ ابْتِدَاءً۔
سخاوت وہ ہے جو مانگنے سے پہلے ہو۔
“Generosity is to give without being asked.”
