What rewards do we get if we feed the poor?
Feeding the hungry is part of the required actions from the believers. Those who believe and do good deeds, God promises to reward them with forgiveness and gardens of eternity where they will dwell in joy forever.
Currently, there is enough food in the world to feed the world population and more, and the potential for growing food is greater than the projected rise in world population. However, daily one in every nine person in the world goes to bed hungry!
