From the indications of honesty is dread of Allah and austerity throughout everyday life; for the honest with conviction fears expending from what is impermissible and bears neediness and hardship for Islam. In the event that he submits sin, he doesn't rest until the point when he comes back to his Lord and atones, so as to free himself from the transgression, and its weight.
Ibn JarirFrom the signs of truthfulness is fear of Allah and asceticism in life; for the truthful with conviction fears consuming from what is impermissible and bears poverty and hardship for the sake of Islam. If he commits sin then he does not sleep until he returns to his Lord and repents, in order to free himself from the sin, and its burden.
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari: I was in Makkah during the season of Hajj and I saw a man from Khurasaan calling out to the people: "Oh pilgrims, oh people of Makkah - from those who are present and those far off, I have lost a pouch that contains a thousand dinars. So whoever returns the pouch, Allah will reward them with good, save them from the hell fire, and His bounty and favors will be acquired on the Day of Accounting (Day of Judgment)."
An old man from the people of Makkah approached him and said: "Oh Khurasaani, our city is in a very tough condition, and the days of hajj are few, and its season is appointed, and the doors of profit-making are closed. This money might fall in the hands of a believer who is poor and old in age. Maybe he plans to give it if you make a promise that you will give him a little bit of money that is halal (permissible) for him to use."
The Khurasaani said: "How much does he want?"
The old man said: "He wants one-tenth of the money (a hundred dinars)."
The Khurasaani said: "No. I will not grant him the money and instead I will take my case to Allah, and complain to Him on the day we meet Him, and Allah is sufficient for us and the best one to trust in."
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari said: "I realized that it was the old man is poor, and he was the one who took the pouch of dinars and wishes to have a little portion of it. So I followed him until he returned to his home. My assumptions were confirmed. I heard him calling onto his wife:"Oh Lubabah."
She said: "I am at your service, O Abu Ghayth."
The old man said: I found the owner of the dinars calling for it, and he does not intend to give any reward to the person who finds it. I said to him "Give us a hundred dinars and he refused and said he would take his case to Allah. What should I do O Lubabah? I must return it, for I fear my Lord, and I fear that my sin is multiplied.
His wife said to him: Oh Man! We have been struggling and suffering from poverty with you for the last 50 years, and you have 4 daughters, 2 sisters, my mother and I, and you are the ninth. Keep all the money and feed us for we are hungry, and clothe us for you know better our situation. Perhaps Allah, the All-Mighty, will make you rich afterwards and you might be able to give the money back after you fed your children, or Allah will pay the amount you owe on the day when the kingdom will belong to the King (Allah).
He said to her: Will I consume haram after 86 years of my life, and burn my organs with fire after I have been patient with my poverty, and become worthy of Allah anger, even though I am close to my grave?! No, By Allah, I will not do so!
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari said: I left with amazement concerning his condition and that of his wife. At a later point during the day, I heard the owner of the pouch calling out...
Saying: "O people of Makkah, O pilgrims, who ever of you find a pouch containing a thousand dinars, let him return it and they shall surely find great reward with Allah."
The old man said: Oh Khurasaani, I have addressed you the other day and advised you that our land is low on cultivation, so reward the person who found the pouch so that he is not tempted to break the laws of Allah. I have advised you to pay the person who finds it a hundred dinars but you refused. If your money falls into hands of a person who fears Allah the All-Mighty, will you give him 10 dinars at least, instead of a 100?
The Khurasaani said: I will not do so, and I will complain to Allah on the day I meet him, and Allah is sufficient for us and the best one to trust in."
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari said: The people dispersed and left. Later on during the hours of the day, once again, the Khurasaani made the same call, saying:
"O people of Makkah, O pilgrims, who ever of you find a pouch containing a thousand dinars, let him return it and they shall surely find great reward with Allah."
The old man came again and said: O Khurasaani, I said to you the day before yesterday to reward the finder a hundred dinars and you refused. Then I advised you to give him ten dinars and you refused, so will you give only one dinar so that he can buy with half of it things he needs and with the other half, sheep milk, so that he can give to the people and feed his children?
The Khurasaani said: I will not do so, and I will complain to Allah on the day I meet him, and Allah is sufficient for us and the best one to trust in. "
The old man angrily said: Come you, and take your money so that I can sleep at night, for I have not had a good mood ever since I found this money.
Ibn Jarir said: So the old man went with the owner of the money and I followed them until the old man entered his house, dug a hole and pulled out the money and said: Take your money and ask Allah to forgive me and bless me from His bounty.
The Khurasaani took the money and intended to leave, but when he reached the door he said: O old man, my father died, May Allah have mercy on him, and left behind three thousand dinars and said to me: Take out a third of this money and give it to a person from the people who is most deserving of it. Therefore I tied it in a pouch so that I may spend it on someone who is worthy of it. By Allah, I have not seen a person, since I left Khurasaan until now, who is more worthy of it then you. So take it, May Allah's blessing be upon you, and May He reward for the trust you kept, and your patience during poverty. The Khurasaani man left without the money.
The old man wept and prayed to Allah, saying: May Allah bless the owner of the money in his grave, and May Allah bless his son.
Ibn Jarir said: I left after the Khurasaani but Abu Ghayth (the old man) followed me and brought me back. He asked me to sit down, and said: I have seen you following me since the first day; you have come to know of our situation yesterday and today. I have heard that the Prophet said: "If you are gifted from the provision of Allah, without begging or asking, then accept it and do not reject it." So this is a gift from Allah to all those attending.
The old man called: O Lubabah, O so and so, O so and so. He called on his daughters and his sisters and wife and her mother, and sat down and made me sit down. We were 10. He opened the bag, and said spread your clothing over your laps.
So I (Ibn Jarir) did, but the girls did not have proper clothing that would enable them to do that, so they extended their hands. The old man gave dinar by dinar in order until he reached me (Ibn Jarir) and said: "Here is a dinar." The process continued until the bag was empty and I received a hundred dinars.
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari said: So joy filled my heart because of the provision they received more then the joy I had because I received a hundred dinars.
When I was leaving the old man said: O young man. You are blessed; keep this money with you for it is halal. And know that I use to wake up for Fajr prayer with this wet shirt. After I was done I would take it off, and give it so that my daughters can pray - one by one. Then I would go to work between Dhuhr prayer and Asr prayer and then I would come back at the end of the day with what Allah has given me from dates and dry pieces of bread. Then I would take off my clothes for my daughters and they would pray Dhuhr prayer and Asr prayer, and the same would happen for the Maghrib and Isha prayers. And we did not ever expect to see this kind of money. So may Allah make us make good use of them, and may Allah bless the person in his grave and multiply the reward for him.
Ibn Jarir said: So I greeted him goodbye, and took the hundred dinars and used them to write knowledge for two years! I used it to buy paper and pay rent and after sixteen years I returned to Makkah and inquired about the old man. I was told that he died a few months after the incident that occurred between us. His wife died, along with her mother, and his 2 sisters. The only ones that remained were the daughters whom, when I asked about, found that they were married to kings and Princes. I dropped by and they honored me as a guest and treated me kindly until they died also. So May Allah bless them in their graves.
{That will be an admonition given to him who believes in Allah and the Last Day. And whosoever fears Allah and keeps his duty to Him, He will make a way for him to get out (from every difficulty).
And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine. And whosoever puts his trust in Allah, then He will suffice him. Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things. (At-Talaq 65: 2-3) at-Tabari: I was in Makkah amid the period of Hajj and I saw a man from Khurasaan shouting to the general population: "Goodness travelers, gracious individuals of Makkah - from the individuals who are available and those far away, I have lost a pocket that contains a thousand dinars. So whoever restores the pocket, Allah will remunerate them with great, spare them from the hellfire fire, and His abundance and favors will be gained on the Day of Accounting (Day of Judgment)."
An elderly person from the general population of Makkah moved toward him and stated: "Gracious Khurasaani, our city is in an exceptionally extreme condition, and the times of hajj are few, and its season is named, and the entryways of benefit making are shut. This cash may fall in the hands of a devotee who is poor and old in age. Possibly he intends to give it on the off chance that you make a guarantee that you will give him a tad of cash that is halal (passable) for him to utilize."
The Khurasaani stated: "What amount does he need?"
The elderly person stated: "He needs one-tenth of the cash (a hundred dinars)."
The Khurasaani stated: "No. I won't concede him the cash and rather I will take my case to Allah, and whine to Him on the day we meet Him, and Allah is adequate for us and the best one to trust in."
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari stated: "I understood that it was the elderly person is poor, and he was the person who took the pocket of dinars and wishes to have a little bit of it. So I tailed him until the point when he came back to his home. My suspicions were affirmed. I heard him calling onto his wife:"Oh Lubabah."
She stated: "I am at your administration, O Abu Ghayth."
The elderly person stated: I found the proprietor of the dinars calling for it, and he doesn't mean to give any reward to the individual who discovers it. I said to him "Give us a hundred dinars and he won't and said he would take his case to Allah. What would it be a good idea for me to do O Lubabah? I should return it, for I fear my Lord, and I expect that my transgression is duplicated.
His better half said to him: Oh Man! We have been battling and experiencing neediness with you throughout the previous 50 years, and you have 4 girls, 2 sisters, my mom and I, and you are the ninth. Keep all the cash and feed us for we are eager, and dress us for you know better our circumstance. Maybe Allah, the All-Mighty, will make you rich thereafter and you may have the capacity to give the cash back after you nourished your kids, or Allah will pay the sum you owe on the day when the kingdom will have a place with the King (Allah).
He said to her: Will I devour haram following 86 years of my life, and consume my organs with flame after I have been quiet with my neediness, and turned out to be deserving of Allah outrage, despite the fact that I am near my grave?! No, By Allah, I won't do as such!
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari stated: I left with surprise concerning his condition and that of his significant other. At a later point amid the day, I heard the proprietor of the pocket getting out...
Saying: "O individuals of Makkah, O pioneers, who ever of you discover a pocket containing a thousand dinars, let him return it and they will most likely discover extraordinary reward with Allah."
The elderly person stated: Oh Khurasaani, I have tended to you a day or two ago and exhorted you that our territory is low on development, so remunerate the individual who found the pocket with the goal that he isn't enticed to overstep the laws of Allah. I have prompted you to pay the individual who discovers it a hundred dinars however you won't. In the event that your cash falls into hands of an individual who fears Allah the All-Mighty, will you give him 10 dinars in any event, rather than a 100?
The Khurasaani stated: I won't do as such, and I will whine to Allah on the day I meet him, and Allah is adequate for us and the best one to trust in."
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari stated: The general population scattered and left. Later on amid the hours of the day, by and by, the Khurasaani made a similar call, saying:
"O individuals of Makkah, O pioneers, who ever of you discover a pocket containing a thousand dinars, let him return it and they will without a doubt discover incredible reward with Allah."
The elderly person came back again and stated: O Khurasaani, I said to you two days ago to compensate the discoverer a hundred dinars and you can't. At that point I exhorted you to give him ten dinars and you cannot, so will you give just a single dinar so he can purchase with half of it things he needs and with the other half, sheep drain, so he can provide for the general population and feed his youngsters?
The Khurasaani stated: I won't do as such, and I will gripe to Allah on the day I meet him, and Allah is adequate for us and the best one to trust in. "
The elderly person irately stated: Come you, and take your cash with the goal that I can rest during the evening, for I have not had a decent inclination as far back as I discovered this cash.
Ibn Jarir stated: So the elderly person ran with the proprietor of the cash and I tailed them until the point when the elderly person went into his home, uncovered an opening and pulled the cash and stated: Take your cash and request that Allah excuse me and favor me from His abundance.
The Khurasaani took the cash and proposed to leave, yet when he achieved the entryway he stated: O elderly person, my dad kicked the bucket, May Allah show kindness toward him, and left behind three thousand dinars and said to me: Take out 33% of this cash and offer it to an individual from the general population who is most meriting it. In this manner I tied it in a pocket with the goal that I may spend it on somebody who is deserving of it. By Allah, I have not seen an individual, since I left Khurasaan as of recently, who is progressively deserving of it then you. So take it, May Allah's favoring arrive, and May He remunerate for the trust you kept, and your understanding amid destitution. The Khurasaani man left without the cash.
The elderly person sobbed and appealed to Allah, saying: May Allah favor the proprietor of the cash in his grave, and May Allah favor his child.
Ibn Jarir stated: I left after the Khurasaani however Abu Ghayth (the elderly person) tailed me and brought me back. He requesting that I take a seat, and stated: I have seen you tailing me since the principal day; you have come to know about our circumstance yesterday and today. I have heard that the Prophet stated: "On the off chance that you are talented from the arrangement of Allah, without asking or asking, at that point acknowledge it and don't dismiss it." So this is a blessing from Allah to every one of those visiting.
The elderly person called: O Lubabah, O so thus, O so thus. He approached his little girls and his sisters and spouse and her mom, and sat down and influenced me to take a seat. We were 10. He opened the sack, and said spread your attire over your laps.
So I (Ibn Jarir) did, yet the young ladies did not have appropriate dress that would empower them to do that, so they expanded their hands. The elderly person gave dinar by dinar all together until the point that he contacted me (Ibn Jarir) and stated: "Here is a dinar." The procedure proceeded until the point when the pack was unfilled and I gotten a hundred dinars.
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari stated: So delight filled my heart due to the arrangement they got all the more then the delight I had on the grounds that I got a hundred dinars.
When I was leaving the elderly person stated: O young fellow. You are honored; keep this cash with you for it is halal. Furthermore, realize that I use to wake up for Fajr supplication with this wet shirt. After I was done I would take it off, and give it with the goal that my little girls can ask - one by one. At that point I would go to work between Dhuhr petition and Asr supplication and afterward I would return toward the day's end with what Allah has given me from dates and dry bits of bread. At that point I would remove my garments for my little girls and they would supplicate Dhuhr petition and Asr supplication, and the equivalent would occur for the Maghrib and Isha supplications. What's more, we didn't ever hope to see this sort of cash. So may Allah make us make great utilization of them, and may Allah favor the individual in his grave and duplicate the reward for him.
Ibn Jarir stated: So I welcomed him farewell, and took the hundred dinars and utilized them to compose learning for a long time! I utilized it to purchase paper and pay lease and following sixteen years I came back to Makkah and asked about the elderly person. I was informed that he kicked the bucket a couple of months after the episode that happened between us. His better half kicked the bucket, alongside her mom, and his 2 sisters. The main ones that remained were the girls whom, when I got some information about, found that they were hitched to rulers and Princes. I dropped by and they respected me as a visitor and treated me compassionate until they kicked the bucket too. So May Allah favor them in their graves.
{That will be a reprimand given to him who puts stock in Allah and the Last Day. Furthermore, whosoever fears Allah and keeps his obligation to Him, He will make a route for him to get out (from each trouble).
Furthermore, He will give him from (sources) he never could envision. What's more, whosoever puts his trust in Allah, at that point He will get the job done him. Verily, Allah will achieve his motivation. In reality Allah has set a measure for all things. (At-Talaq 65: 2-3)

An old man from the people of Makkah approached him and said: "Oh Khurasaani, our city is in a very tough condition, and the days of hajj are few, and its season is appointed, and the doors of profit-making are closed.

The elderly person irately stated: Come you, and take your cash with the goal that I can rest during the evening, for I have not had a decent inclination as far back as I discovered this cash.
Ibn Jarir stated: So the elderly person ran with the proprietor of the cash and I tailed them until the point when the elderly person went into his home, uncovered an opening and pulled the cash and stated: Take your cash and request that Allah excuse me and favor me from His abundance.
The Khurasaani took the cash and proposed to leave, yet when he achieved the entryway he stated: O elderly person, my dad kicked the bucket, May Allah show kindness toward him, and left behind three thousand dinars and said to me: Take out 33% of this cash and offer it to an individual from the general population who is most meriting it. In this manner I tied it in a pocket with the goal that I may spend it on somebody who is deserving of it. By Allah, I have not seen an individual, since I left Khurasaan as of recently, who is progressively deserving of it then you. So take it, May Allah's favoring arrive, and May He remunerate for the trust you kept, and your understanding amid destitution. The Khurasaani man left without the cash.
The elderly person sobbed and appealed to Allah, saying: May Allah favor the proprietor of the cash in his grave, and May Allah favor his child.
Ibn Jarir stated: I left after the Khurasaani however Abu Ghayth (the elderly person) tailed me and brought me back. He requesting that I take a seat, and stated: I have seen you tailing me since the principal day; you have come to know about our circumstance yesterday and today. I have heard that the Prophet stated: "On the off chance that you are talented from the arrangement of Allah, without asking or asking, at that point acknowledge it and don't dismiss it." So this is a blessing from Allah to every one of those visiting.
The elderly person called: O Lubabah, O so thus, O so thus. He approached his little girls and his sisters and spouse and her mom, and sat down and influenced me to take a seat. We were 10. He opened the sack, and said spread your attire over your laps.
So I (Ibn Jarir) did, yet the young ladies did not have appropriate dress that would empower them to do that, so they expanded their hands. The elderly person gave dinar by dinar all together until the point that he contacted me (Ibn Jarir) and stated: "Here is a dinar." The procedure proceeded until the point when the pack was unfilled and I gotten a hundred dinars.
Ibn Jarir at-Tabari stated: So delight filled my heart due to the arrangement they got all the more then the delight I had on the grounds that I got a hundred dinars.
When I was leaving the elderly person stated: O young fellow. You are honored; keep this cash with you for it is halal. Furthermore, realize that I use to wake up for Fajr supplication with this wet shirt. After I was done I would take it off, and give it with the goal that my little girls can ask - one by one. At that point I would go to work between Dhuhr petition and Asr supplication and afterward I would return toward the day's end with what Allah has given me from dates and dry bits of bread. At that point I would remove my garments for my little girls and they would supplicate Dhuhr petition and Asr supplication, and the equivalent would occur for the Maghrib and Isha supplications. What's more, we didn't ever hope to see this sort of cash. So may Allah make us make great utilization of them, and may Allah favor the individual in his grave and duplicate the reward for him.
Ibn Jarir stated: So I welcomed him farewell, and took the hundred dinars and utilized them to compose learning for a long time! I utilized it to purchase paper and pay lease and following sixteen years I came back to Makkah and asked about the elderly person. I was informed that he kicked the bucket a couple of months after the episode that happened between us. His better half kicked the bucket, alongside her mom, and his 2 sisters. The main ones that remained were the girls whom, when I got some information about, found that they were hitched to rulers and Princes. I dropped by and they respected me as a visitor and treated me compassionate until they kicked the bucket too. So May Allah favor them in their graves.
{That will be a reprimand given to him who puts stock in Allah and the Last Day. Furthermore, whosoever fears Allah and keeps his obligation to Him, He will make a route for him to get out (from each trouble).
Furthermore, He will give him from (sources) he never could envision. What's more, whosoever puts his trust in Allah, at that point He will get the job done him. Verily, Allah will achieve his motivation. In reality Allah has set a measure for all things. (At-Talaq 65: 2-3)
