Ramadan and Charity

Prophet Muhammad(Sallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said about importance of Charity and Fasting: "Fasting is a shield, and Sadaqa(Charity) extinguishes sins like water extinguishes fire".
There are so many causes that we can give to, at this time in Ramadan we feel the hunger that many feel around the world. You can think of any continent and there are hungry people that are in need of charity. There are thousands of people around the world who are in need of charity. Now that you feel how hungry they are every day for a month, it drives you to have more compassion for what they have to go through and it should drive to give little bit in charity for them. Reward of charity is so great.
God(Allah) says in Quran, "Those who give charity, its like a loan that Allah multiples for them".
Prophet Muhammad(Sallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) advised on giving small charity consistently is better than large charity all at once.
Alhamdullilah , at the end of each day of fasting I've food on my table to eat,many are not so fortunate.So Inshallah lets try to make an effort to give charity this Ramadan and help those who are hungry and in need of money.
