In this day and age, many people feel that to get a large reward must do a spectacular practice: building a mosque, establishing an educational institution, or charity in large quantities. As a result, not a few of us who actually ignore the small goodness in everyday life. In fact, in the view of Islam, there was not a single good-anything small-which was wasted on the side of Allah SWT. Rosululloh SAW said:

You don’t hate anything

Meaning: “Don’t underestimate the good, even by meeting your brother with a radiant face (smiling).” (HR. Muslim Imam)

This hadith is a reminder that no matter how small the good we do, if intended because of Allah, it will turn into a worship of large reward.

Small works in the pesantren environment

If we pay attention to life in Islamic boarding schools, there are many “small works” that can be done by students, but often considered trivial:

  • Sweep the yard or tidy up the mosque.
  • Helping friends find books or stationery.
  • Disseminating study information or lesson schedule.
  • Write a simple da’wah article like this.
  • Share smiles and greetings to fellow students.

All that might look small in the human eyes. But in the view of Allah SWT, a small work carried out with a sincere heart can be the cause of the arrival of a big reward.

Argument of Al -Qur’an and Yellow Book

Al -Qur’an confirms:

Anyone who is heavy atom is better

Meaning: “Anyone who does the kindness of Zarrah, he will see it.” (QS. Az-Zalzalah Verse 7)

In the book Ihyā ” ulūm ad-dīnImam al-Ghozali explained that the slightest charity, if accompanied by sincere intentions, then the charity is great on the side of Allah SWT. In fact, he gave an example of a smile, greeting, or just shifting thorns from the road, could be the cause of safety in the afterlife.

So are Al-Horn The work of Imam Syarofuddin Yahya An-Nawawi, stated that the light deeds carried out with a sincere heart can cover the shortcomings of great deeds that may still be mixed with riya ‘. This shows that small practices cannot be underestimated, in fact it can be a support for our great charity.

Relevance to modern life

In the digital age, the form of small works can also be broader. For example:

  • Share preaching posts on social media.
  • Remind friends to pray on time via text messages.
  • Spread the research relationship of knowledge or articles that are useful.

Simple practice like this may only take a few seconds, but if it is intended because of God, it can be a flow of reward that flows.

Every time we have the opportunity to do good. No need to wait rich, famous, or have a high position to do charity. Start from small, from what we can do now. Because in Islam, a small practice that is sincere can be big on the side of Allah SWT.

So, never underestimate your little work. It could be, from one smile, one greeting, or one simple writing, God opens countless paths of reward in the hereafter.

Hope it is useful. Wallohu a’lam.
