Friday Sermon, Delivered by Hadhrat Mirza Masroor Ahmad ^(atba), the Head of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community on January 9^th, 2009 :
 

“As to the men that give alms, and the women that give alms, and those who lend to Allah a goodly loan — it will be increased manifold for them, and theirs will also be an honourable reward (57:19).”
