PROMOTING HUMANITARIAN SERVICES FOR SALVATION ON THE DAY OF TRIBULATIONS: AN ISLAMIC RESOLUTIONS

Abstract

 paper buttresses the fact that all wealth and resources belong to Allah. In addition, God in His infinite mercy made some men to be custodians of these resources. To attain salvation on the Day of tribulations, the bestowal (Allah) requires man to utilize the resources by offering humanitarian services to his parents and relatives, helping the widows and the orphans, being good to neighbors, and assisting the distress and the needy people. In addition, committing part of the wealth as endowment, removing harmful things from road, withholding vent and exhibiting good leadership are all means through which a servant could attain salvation on this great Day. The paper concludes that God is Merciful as He endowed man with resources through which they could attain His pleasure. The paper recommends Muslims to constantly make inward analysis of themselves in order to determine their level of commitment to humanitarian services.
