Assalamu Alaikum. How are you? Hope fine by the grace of Allah.
Todai i'm write about an story, "The tragic consequence of not donating the wealth given by Allah"..
Various commentaries state that the owner of a garden in the province of Yemen was a God-fearing man. He used to give a certain portion of the crops of the garden to the poor and needy. But after his death his three sons became his garden's owners. They thought we had a large population. The crop resources of the garden are very scarce compared to our family. So it is not possible for us to give a certain portion of the harvest to the poor ; But no one boy was the opposite of this thinking.
He was sympathetic to the poor. But others did not listen to him. They promised that the next morning we would go and reap the harvest before the beggars arrived; But this oath and promise did not include the will of God. That is, they did not say that, God willing, we will go tomorrow morning and reap the harvest.
Insha'Allah, Allah sent down warth on their gardens while they were asleep for the crime of not saying and not wanting to give to the poor and needy. As a result, a servere storm-wind blew over the garden and completely destroyed the crops of the garden. Seeing the garden, it seemed that it had become like a fat crop. Then early the morning they said to each other,"if you want reap, go to the garden early in the morning." The beggars have to pick up the crop before the crowd gathers.
Then they left for the harvest in the morning, feeling very arrogant and haughty according to the previous decision. And began to talk to each other quietly- be careful! Today no group of beggars can gather around you. Harvest work must be complete before they arrive.
They reached the garden with the attitude of driving away the beggars and the poor. Observing the destruction and devastation of the garden, he said, "We may have forgotten the path and come to another garden". This is not our garden. Our garden is so beautiful, full of lush crops, we have lost our way. But seeing the boundaries and signs around the garden, the regained consciousness. They felt proud and disobedient to God. And they said : The cures of Allah has come upon us, we have been deprived of the harvest. The man among them who was virtuous and sensitive to beggars said, "Did I not tell you before that you should not disobey Allah?" It is nothing but disobediences to God, the desire to deprive the beggars, and the consequences of arrogance. There is still time, repent from sin. Why are you still not proclaiming the glory of God? As soon as they became proletarians, their state of confusion ended.
They repented in their hearts and prayed to Allah for forgiveness and said, "Oh Our Lord! We are glorifying you. You are the superpower. You forgive us. We have crossed the line, if you do not forgive, we have no choice."
Then they started blaming each other. Eventually they blamed themselves for their misfortune and said it was because of their rebellious behavior with God. They repented to God with a sincere heart and hoped that God was great and very merciful. So they can only hope that and said,"Allah will forgive us and give us a good garden instead". We handed over all our problems to him and focused on him.The commentators have written that as a result of their repentance and submission of all their problems to Allah and being the bearers of the true religion, Allah made them very rich by giving them many times better and lush gardens.
So we have to Donate our wealth what Allah given us and We should always respect the Beggars....
..............The End........
