Earthquake

Those whose houses are destroyed in the earthquake earn good deeds as if they have given alms and those who are injured in the earthquake earn good deeds as if they are ghazis (veterans). May God give long lives to all the sufferers of the Adıyaman and Urfa earthquakes.

Those who lose their lives in earthquakes are considered as martyrs. Those who are injured are considered as ghazis and the properties lost are rewarded as alms by God’s leave.
