Asalaam aleikum
He was driving a luxury car every day n it was my duty 2 greet him n 2 open d gates 4 him, coz I'm working as a watchman in his villa.
But as usual he never answer back my greetings.
In one of d days he saw me opening garbage bags outside d villa n searching if there's any food left inside. As usual he didn't look at me, it's as if he didn't see anything. The next day I saw a paper bag in d same place, but it was clean n d food inside was covered nicely, it was clean food. It's as if someone has just brought them from d super market. I didn't bother where it came from, I just took d paper bag n I was happy about it. Every day I found this paper bag at d same place with fresh vegetables n all that we needed at home. This became my daily routine.
I was eating this food with my wife n kids. I was wondering who's this fool who's forgetting his paper bag here everyday n it's full of every kind of food. One day there was grief in d villa n I was told my boss has died. There were too much guests coming 2d villa. The worse of it all I discovered d fool didn't forget his paper bag, he was always forgetting. Therefore that day I didn't get any food. Also I thought may be one of d guests who came 4d funeral took it with him. Bt d same thing happened d 2nd day, 3rd day n 4th day.
Like this it passed many days n I didn't see d paper bag I used 2see. When d situation became tight 4me, I decided 2ask d wife of my boss 2raise my salary or I'll quit working as a watchman. After I v told her, she was shocked, n asked me, why now n this salary was enough 4u 4 more than 2 yrs now n u never complained, what happened?. I tried 2 tell her different excuses but she was never convinced. In d end I decided 2tell her d truth, d story of d paper bag which inside it I was getting all that I needed 4 a day.
Then she asked me n when did u stop seeing this paper bag? I told her after d death of ur husband. Now I came 2 realise that, I stopped seeing d paper bag immediately after d death of my boss. Why it never came in my thoughts, that it was him who was keeping this paper bag. It was because I thought, how can this man b this generous while he doesn't even answer my salaams. The lady started 2cry n I told her don't cry, I never knew it was ur husband who was keeping that paper bag. I'm sorry I'll stay in my job n I'll never ask 4d raise again. The lady told me, I'm crying coz finally I found d 7th person my husband was giving this paper bag full of food. I know my husband was giving 7 people everyday, I had already found six people, n all these days I was searching 4d 7th person.
And 2day I found u. May Allah have mercy on him, he never told me who was d 7th person. From that day I started 2receive d paper bag again, bt this time his son was bringing it 2my hse n giving it 2me on my hand. I was thanking him bt again he was not replying. After a while I came 2 discover his problem, n I told him thank u with a loud voice. He told me don't get offended if I don't reply u I v a problem, my hearing is very weak like my father.
Ya Allah how many times we have thought bad of pple without knowing d reason.
