| THE STORY |
BETTER
TO GIVE
---------------
A young man, a student in one of the universities, was one
day taking a walk with a Professor, who was commonly called
the student's friend, from his kindness to those who waited
on his instructions.
As they went along,they saw lying in the path a pair of
old shoes, which they supposed to belong to a poor man who
was employed in a field close by,and who had nearly finished
his day's work.
The student turned to the professor, saying: "Let us
play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and conceal
ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his perplexity
when he cannot find them."
"My young friend," answered the professor, "we
should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor.
But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure
by means of this poor man. Put a coin in each shoe, and
then we will hide ourselves and watch how this affects him."
The student did so and they both placed themselves behind
the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work,
and came across the field to the path where he had left
his coat and shoes.
While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of
his shoes, but feeling something hard, he stooped down to
feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder
were seen upon his countenance. He gazed upon the coin,
turned it around, and looked at it again and again.
He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was
to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket, and proceeded
to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on
finding the other coin.
His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his knees, looked
up to the heavens and uttered aloud a fervent thanksgiving
in which he spoke of his wife who was sick and helpless,
and his children without bread, whom this timely bounty,
from some unknown hand,would save from perishing.
The student stood there deeply affected, and his eyes filled
with tears. "Now," said the professor, are you
not much better pleased than if you had played your intended
trick?"
The youth replied, "You have taught me a lesson which
I will never forget. I feel now the truth of these words,
which I never understood before: "It's more blessed
to give than to receive."
Abdullah bin Abbas (radi Allahu anhu) reported that the
Prophet (sallAllahu alaiyhi wassallam) said that encouraging
good, prohibiting evil, lifting the burden of the weak person
and removing an offensive thing from a path are all acceptable
prayers to Allah. [ibn Majah]

| SUNNAH
(PRACTISES OF MUHAMMAD SAW) |
When
walking, Muhammad Sallallahu Alyhi Wa Sallam raised his
foot with force, when placing it he slightly inclined forward
with humility. He lengthened his stride as though descending
from a high place to a low one.
(Khasaail
- Commentary of Shamaail - pg. 12 , 73)

| HEALTH TIPS |
Muster
some courage and say that if Allâh wishes this (sickness),
we are prepared to lose this life of ours and we do not
utter a single word. If death overtakes us in such a state,
what great rewards we will receive from that Being who gave
us so much without even asking. How much more He will reward
us (on account of our patience)!
And
if we recover from that illness, we would regain our health,
maintain the rewards that we received (for exercising patience)
and also receive great stages (in jannah) - there will be
no decrease in all these rewards. At the same time, we will
still have our Deen and Dunya with us.

| A THOUGHT |
AT
DAWN
---------
Being secure and healthy. If thou awake at dawn thou shalt
receive what thou askest for. The
robe of honour bestowed at the Court of Allah is bestowed
at the time of dawn. The gate of Paradise is opened at dawn;
and it is then that His beauty is revealed to His lovers.
Wouldst thou be king at that moment? Then go and beg at the
door of Allah.
