When it was time for offering, the chanda(donation) box was passed around. Despite the Imam's call for good offering, I still hurriedly and secretly pulled out an old worn out note of R10 from my pocket and dropped it in.
Just then, the person behind me tapped me on the shoulder and handed me a R200 note.
I smiled, so generous.
Majestically, I looked around and put the R200 in the box and passed it on.
Then I turned and thanked the man seriously for being so generous.
He replied "don't mention it''
be more careful next time, it fell out YOUR pocket"

Alhamdulilah Allah swt is the greatest.

Aww that's cute.
They were doing donations for a new Masjid in the area today. It was in our local Masjid and was advertised for a week.
Not a single person put a penny in which was quite embarrassing actually. Having said that I didn't either. Sad news for the people who were collecting. They seemed so ambitious.
