Summary

This quote emphasizes the true essence of charity. Instead of focusing on one's personal desires or preferences, it highlights the importance of providing others with what they genuinely require. True charity involves understanding the needs and circumstances of those we aim to help, and selflessly offering appropriate assistance. It goes beyond simply giving out of convenience or personal satisfaction, and instead prioritizes addressing the genuine needs of others to enable their overall well-being and progress.
