Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

Believers help the poor even if they are
in need themselves:

GOSPEL: As he looked up, Jesus saw the rich putting their
gifts into the temple treasury. He also saw a poor widow put in
two very small copper coins. "I tell you the truth," he said, "this
poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these peo-

ple gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her
poverty put in all she had to live on." (Luke, 21:1-4)

QURAN: Those who were already settled in the abode, and in
faith, before they came, love those who have migrated to them
and do not find in their hearts any need for what they have
been given and prefer them to themselves even if they them-
selves are needy. It is the people who are safe-guarded from
the avarice of their own selves who are successful. (Surat al-
Hashr, 9)

Not showing off when worshiping:

GOSPEL: "And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites,
for they love to pray standing... on the street corners to be
seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their re-
ward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the
door and pray to your God, Who is unseen. Then your God,
Who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. (Matthew,
6:5-6)

QURAN: Who are neglectful of their prayers, Those who
show off and deny help to others... (Surat al-Ma'un, 5-6)
