He tells that one day there was a very rich man who had no family and no children. This man lived alone and the days and the world taught him that money is of no value. One day he decided to invite all his workers to dinner, and after eating, he was placed in front of him. Each of them had a copy of the Noble Qur’an and a large sum of money, then asked them if they would choose the Noble Qur’an or the amount of money. He first started with his guard and said to him, “Come on, choose.” The guard answered immediately and without shame, saying: I wish I had chosen the Koran, but I don’t know how to read, so I will choose money, it is more useful and beneficial to me.
Then came the role of the rich farmer who works for me. He also chose the money, saying: My wife is sick and I need money to buy her treatment. If it weren’t for this reason, I would have chosen the Qur’an, but I desperately need money. Then the cook’s turn came and he too, after a little thought: I like to read a lot but I work all day and I don’t have time to read so I will choose the money .
The last role was the role of a young boy who worked for the wealthy as a groomer for his animals, and this boy was very poor and this appears from his torn clothes and shoes, and when the man ordered him to choose between the Qur’an and the money, the boy answered immediately without hesitation: I will choose the Qur’an. It is true that I need money to buy new shoes and food for my mother, but she taught me that a word from God Almighty is more useful than gold and tastes sweeter than witness. Thus, the boy chose the Qur’an and after he opened it, he found in it two envelopes. The first envelope contained an amount ten times the amount that was It is on the table, and the second envelope contains a document that he is the only heir to the fortune of this rich man.
The rich man smiled happily and said to everyone: He who thinks well of God does not disappoint him .
