One religious practice that i choose to do is to give sadaqah(charity) i choose to do this not only because its what islam teaches but i read alot of articles about people all around the world that are dying because they have nothing to eat according to bread.org Every day almost 16,000 children die from hunger-related causes also Hadrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (may Allah's blessings and peace be upon him) as saying, "The generous man is near Allah, near paradise, near men and far from hell, but the miserly man is far from Allah, far from paradise, far from men and near hell. Indeed, an ignorant man who is generous is dearer to Allah than a worshipper who is miserly." (Tirmidhi)
Though i know that i alone cannot end world hunger i know that i can still make a difference in someones life and just knowing that im trying to help some stranger get some food makes me feel better both mentally and spiritually.
