A poor old woman in Kilakarai had only one date palm tree. A stranger came to her door asking for food during a drought. She had nothing but dates. She gave him all the dates and then poured water on the tree, crying: “O Allah, my tree will die now.” The stranger smiled, prayed, and left. The next morning, the tree had triple the fruit. The moral: Charity does not decrease wealth; it increases blessings (Barakah).
