As night fell, the man left his home with a purse of money and started to
look for someone to give it to. As he walked through the streets he came
across a thief and much to the thief's surprise the kind, charitable man
gave him the purse of money.
The thief was so surprised that he told all his friends and family about the
kind man's generosity and it wasn't long until the villagers were asking one
another, "Did you hear, last night the thief was given charity?" The villagers
thought it was a strange state of affairs.
No long after, the kind, charitable man heard that the purse he had given
away last night had been to a thief so he supplicated to Allah saying, "O
Allah, tonight I will go out and be charitable again!"
That night the kind, charitable man filled another purse with money, closed
the door of his house and went out into the streets. It was so late that most
good people were either asleep or at home with their family. This time the
kind, charitable man found a woman and as he had done the night before
look for someone to give it to. As he walked through the streets he came
