THE POOR WHO REFUSED TO BE RICH. One day as usual prophet Muhammad pbuh was addressing a crowd when a poor man with a raggy clothes suddenly appeared saying Assalamun alaikum, because the prophet has address them before that all muslim are brothers no matter what each status so when they come to worship or gathering they should mingle together, so this man look through the crowd and had a place to sat down, not knowing he sat closer to a very rich man, The rich man began to draw away from the poor man, he collected the edges of his cloth away from the poor man, Muhammad pbuh saw what the rich man did and said, perphaps you are afraid he will strike you with poverty, but the man said no, then the prophet said then perphaps you are afraid he will take some of your wealth if he comes closer to you, the man replied No, then the prophet said, then perphaps, you fear he will make your cloth dirty, the rich man realised what he did was very bad and that the prophet has revealed his intentions, so he told the prophet that he will divide his wealth and give half to poor man so tha he will be forgiven by ALLAH, everyone was happy because this poor mans life was going to change within some time, but the poor man spoke and said he does not want to rich because he fears he will be arrogant and discriminatory towards others, he told the prophet he is ok with is status everyone wondered. LESSON: Dont forget to give your shoulder and feet well to the poor in Masjid, Do not look down on others if you have wealth, fame etc, thanks for reading any Lesson is welcomed, may ALLAH guide and protect us from wealth that makes us forget our duty as muslims, Ameeeee
