Secret help is valued more according to the Quran and helps cover sins.
In the Holy Quran, the value and importance of helping others, especially in a concealed manner, is clearly articulated. In Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 271, Allah states that if you disclose your charity, it is good, but if you conceal it and give it to the needy, it is better for you and will atone for some of your misdeeds. This indicates that helping someone in secret, without seeking attention or acknowledgment, is of much greater worth in the sight of Allah. Moreover, in Surah Al-Kahf, verse 46, it mentions that wealth and children are adornments of the worldly life, while good deeds that endure are far better and more rewarding. Hence, silent charity and actions that do not attract attention are highly regarded in the life of a believer. When we engage in help from a pure intention in our hearts, we gain unique blessings and mercy from Allah. Such acts can have a more profound impact on both our lives and those of the recipients. Ultimately, these Quranic teachings encourage us to have love for others and sincerity in our collective actions.
If you disclose your charities, it is [all] well and good; but if you conceal them and give them to the poor, it is better for you and will atone for some of your misdeeds. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do.
Wealth and children are [but] adornment of worldly life. But the enduring good deeds are better to your Lord for reward and better for [one's] hope.
One day, a man named Hasan decided to help one of the needy. He put an amount of money in an envelope and left it in the yard of that house. He felt a tremendous sense of satisfaction and happiness in doing this, knowing it was a selfless act without any expectations. The next day, he learned that the needy person had been able to solve family issues with that money, which motivated Hasan to continuously assist those facing hardships.
