Optional fruit basket

Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim

Dear friends, how are you all? I hope you are all very well, I am also very well with your prayers and the grace of the Creator.

A few days ago, a friend of mine named Ashraf, he told me an incident, I was very happy to hear his incident, I was very happy to hear the incident that he told me. I will share that incident with you today.

A few days ago, Ashraf went to a place where he was sitting for tea in a shop. The tea shop had a lot of fruits. There is an optional fruit basket.

My friend said, I asked the shopkeeper why this fruit basket, the shopkeeper replied wait a little you will understand yourself.

After a while a man bought real and one kg of apples and with that he bought another pound of apples. And left the extra fruit in that basket.

After a while there was a real man whose clothes were dirty and his face looked helpless, it was obvious that he was a poor man, he came and told the shopkeeper to give one kg of apples from optional fruit basket He gave it to the man.

Then the shopkeeper said to me, do you understand now? Why this optional basket has been kept. My friend said yes I understand now, whoever can afford it will buy fruit and put it in this basket and whoever can't afford it will take fruit from this basket without any money. Then my friend bought one kg of apples.

After hearing the incident, it seemed that if we could also make such an arrangement by which the poor people would benefit a little, it is possible only if we wish.

Thanks everyone for reading my post today.
