A little funny- but we should all learn from this and complete all Qada fasts: A teacher was selling olives at the market and business was slow. He called to a woman who was passing by and tried to entice her. She shook her head and told him she didnt have any money with her. No problem, the teacher grinned. You can pay me later. She still looked hesitant, so he offered her one to taste. Oh no, I cant, Im fasting, she responded.Fasting? But Ramadan was 6 months ago! Yes, well, I missed a day and Im making it up now. Go ahead and give me a kilo of the black olives. Forget it! shouted the teacher. If it took you 6 months to pay back a debt you owed ALLAH, who knows when youll get around to paying me!
